Tax the Rich

The inheritance tax hurts the poor by encouraging the rich to overspend because they can’t leave it all to Junior. This tax-avoidance induced spending on jets, boats and lavish parties reduces the money available for new plant and equipment. Look, America already overconsumes. We shouldn’t pass tax increases that exacerbate this. So go ahead and tax the rich, but in a less harmful way.
