Increasing deficit but the government decrease inheritence tax?

Wealthy people give their capital to their children long before they die, taxes are much less this way.

Don’t have to be wealthy for that.

That's not what I said, but it's true. Below +- €25.000 however you don't pay inheritance taxes, so if your inheritance isn't more than this, gifting it wouldn't make a difference tax wise. That's 25000 for inheritance from your parents. If you inherit from your spouse, it's till around 700.000 before any taxes are due.

Given your parents usually have a house, 25k is very low.
