I commend what your grandfather did. But, that is the exception. Do you think the Walton children who are raking in billions did that? Bill Gates?
No one does enough work (as it is not possible) to be entitled to a billion dollars in wealth. No one.

Tell the 1% they can't leave money/assets to their children and watch them find a country that would love to allow them. You'll miss them when they are gone and you realize while only 1% of the population left so did 50% of our tax base. You'll realize your contributions to society won't even pay for interstate upkeep much less a carrier fleet...

The Walton family and Bill Gates employ thousands, if not millions, more people than my grandfather ever could have dreamed.
Whoever built it decides what to do with their money, and that includes giving it to their children.
The federalist papers are chock full of writings making it clear the forefathers wanted utmost protections on man's right to own property, money included. Madison even goes so far as to say a man's right to own property is identical to free speech.
