So many heirs tho...

What do we do if their heirs just inherit it?

Anakin Skywalker time? 🤔

If we're waving magic wands around, change the tax laws to limit how much you can inherit.

Changing the step up basis thing is actually pretty low hanging fruit.

I mean, if we could easily change laws, we wouldn't need to murder a bunch of rich people, just seize any assets that exceed a certain limit (a wealth cap essentially) and call it a day. No bloodshed. Frankly, I'm not a fan of violence if there is a peaceful path.
