    It shouldn’t be more dangerous to be a 9th grader than a CEO.

      So, what I’m hearing is, we should kill 2 CEOs for every school child.

            First off, there’s an estate tax. Second, it’s rare for only one person to inherit everything. Third, the children and next of kin are often not even remotely as bad as the dragons that hoard wealth.

            Statistically speaking, 70 percent of inheritances are lost by the second generation. It’s then 90% by the third.

              those dragons that hoard wealth are almost always the children and next of kin in the first place.

              Just for pedentasim, most wealth held by the extremely rich is in the form of assets that aren’t covered by the estate taxes. This is often by design.
