We need to start thinking about what happens when those people die and our incredibly permissive inheritance laws allow them to pass down literal trillions to... basically a bunch of 50, 60, and 70 year olds.

Especially since a lot of that inheritance is going to be stakes in critical businesses that the heirs are in no way, shape, or form qualified to run.



Which businesses are actually critical?


basically any kind of distribution, trucking(food, medicine, everything else), electrical, water, sewer. manufacturing, agriculture, everything that lets you write your ____ question.
