      ethics should mean infants are innocent until they perform actions, yet if the infants parents were billionaires and died the infant would be a billionaire without performing any action.

      Nope! What you said is perfectly acceptable in polite society and in fact I agree. We should hang out sometime maybe.

      Jesus said it best
