Quote by Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr, CEO of Mayflower-Plymouth

“Inheritance is a natural phenomena. Every tree in every forest is first expected to productively utilize the inheritance it receives from prior generations of trees and other life forms. And every tree in every forest is expected to provide an inheritance of new substance created through growth for subsequent generations of trees and other life forms. In ecological systems, there is a correlation between inheritance and growth, each facilitating the other. Economic systems should function in the same way.”
