In the long run, nearly the same effect as 100% inheritance tax anyways.
The government won't know the cash has been removed from the economy, but it'll have been removed all the same.
Not really because I sure as hell wouldn't be paying it to the government.
They'll just print it regardless.

Not to mention anti-social.
By not paying it to the government, I am not personally supporting killing people across the world. So it seems like the moral thing to do.
