Yeah. I've got mixed feelings on it. On one hand, you should be able to pass down what you make to your children. It rewards merit because providing for your family is a powerful incentive. But on the other hand, it's removes merit-based rewards for their descendants. I resolve the disagreement by considering that the government has no business making a decision about that question one way or another.
Besides the rich billionaire you talk about dodges this shit anyway He'd put the ownership of the $2b of stocks in a trust or foundation or something and then just appoint the beneficiary as the CEO. "No money changed hands, someone else is just running this entity now."
That is a problem. That said, I don't sympathize much with a filthy rich billionaire banker who has $2 billion in liquid stocks.
