I dislike the inheritance tax not because I’m going to inherit any money, (I won’t) but because the trusts create generations of worthless human beings.

The entailment laws of England created a class level that considered it beneath them to earn thehir money. Do we really want to reapeat that?

Let them blow it all in the first generation. We can’t tax it away, because anyone smart enough to get that rich is smart enough to a. make friends with congressfolk and b. hire good accountants.
