Every tragedy benefits someone. Right now the makers of Purell and other instant hand sanitizers are having banner years due to swine flu. That isn't an argument in favor of epidemics. Oil companies made a fortune due to increased demand when people started flying less after 9/11. That isn't an argument in favor of terrorism.

How many loose ends will you need to chase down. Inheritance is intertwined with property & ownership. Life insurance is one way around estate taxes. I'm sure there are others.
