18 Families
Ming wonders what separates good companies from bad companies? I think being on this list of only 18 families trying to repeal the estate tax might seriously tilt you toward bad (via TaxProf Blog - the Citizen.org report is 57 pages long). Of course, there's alway our own local baseball magnate candidate for the list, Pohlad (via Smartie at Power Liberal). And if you feel particularly like reading about the ultra rich tonight, Orcinus' Dave Neiwert can explain to you how those families need the money so they can escape the coming environmental disasters they're foisting on the world.
