"I wonder what would happen if people just took their pile of money out to the street and burned it just before they died..."

My father was co-executor of an estate in which the deceased left instruction that no taxes were to be paid. The entire corpus of the estate was donated to various charities. It was a slightly better outcome than burning it. Some went to support medicine, art, and education.
