Estate taxes waste assets that could be more productively employed

NY Times:

Trump Could Save More Than $1 Billion Under His New Tax Plan

Mr. Trump and his family would benefit from his proposed repeal of the estate tax and a reduction in other tax rates.

I suspect the big "gain" would to Trump heirs.  Estate taxes tend to destroy family business and waste the money on the greedy government. They are a product of government greed, that destroys real jobs and greater potential economic growth.
