Basically what I'm wondering is do you see this tax as a way of preventing spoiled brats from getting big gifts,

For me, that one. Your other questions are interesting re: implementation. I suppose I want to allow people to spread it out, but I'd want some measure of protection against loopholes that make it all come back to one or two people.

Do you believe all kids of wealthy people are brats? Do you believe all children of poor people are not? I don't understand why people have such a problem with the chance of rich "brats" getting a bunch of money or being set up unfairly by their parent's wealth. If the kids really are undeserving or unqualified to have the money, it will probably squanered before long anyway.
