Ideally, the Federal government should use Estate tax to move money from Rich Families into more useful and socially stabilizing ways. For example - build back the vanishing middle class. Remember when the US was strongest (around the 1950s) BECAUSE of its GIANT middle class. Back then, the US government LED in RESEARCH leading to many important scientific and medical breakthroughs. Why !!!! They EVEN prevented polio and measles back then !!!!!
