The plumber will not go out of business. He will raise prices and he will get away with it because all his competition will face the same increases. There will be increased incentives to work for cash or barter and not report income. Some of his business will disappear as people learn to "do-it-yourself" or help each other out. The plumber will also find a way to avoid the estate tax.
