Mercier, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgements Most people who endeavor to contribute original research to the field of history understand historian Maureen Ogle’s claim that “writers don’t find ideas; the ideas present themselves, and do so in unexpected ways.” This project is no exception. While laboring through my first year of graduate school, I struggled to find enthusiasm for my proposed thesis topic. It was not an original idea and it did not spark any excitement within me. My unexpected lightbulb moment came when a guest speaker lectured on hop culture in the Pacific Northwest. This presentation piqued my curiosity about the shuttered brewery in my hometown and I discovered that there was little information available at all. To think, the buildings I had driven past an estimated one million times in my life, the company whose logo graces buildings, merchandise, and even firetrucks all throughout the Olympia/Tumwater area, and there were no histories on it! It was clearly my destiny to fill this void.

Taxing Billionaires: Estate Taxes and the Geographical Location of the Ultra-Wealthy Enrico Moretti (University of California, Berkeley) Daniel J. Wilson (Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco)∗ October 11, 2019 Abstract We study the effect of state-level estate taxes on the geographical location of the Forbes 400 richest Americans and its implications for tax policy. We use a change in federal tax law to identify the tax sensitivity of the ultra-wealthy's locational choices. Before 2001, some states had an estate tax and others didn't, but the tax liability for the ultra-wealthy was independent of their domicile state due to a federal credit. In 2001, the credit was phased out and the estate tax liability for the ultra-wealthy suddenly became highly dependent on domicile state.
