More than a thousand individuals of high net worth rose up to
protest the repeal of the estate tax-Newsweek tagged them the
billionaire backlash." The primary visionaries of that group, Bill
Gates Sr. and Chuck Collins, argue here that individual wealth is a
product not only of hard work and smart choices but of the society
that provides the fertile soil for succes. Weaving personal
narratives, history, and plenty of solid economic sense, Gates and
Collins make a sound and compelling case for estate tax reform, not
repeal.
