Re: ....so?
The purpose was to pare down the Rockefellers, Morgans, Vanderbilts, Carnegies and other so-called "robber baron" families at the turn of the 20th century and made some sense back then. Today it's just a huge tax honeypot which attracts every type of politician. Ayn Rand was right.
Speaking from personal experience, that tax check was the largest I've ever written. Well into six figures. It was more painful than a root canal.
