Mine was this:
For example, we unanimously upheld the estate tax as a valid excise though it is triggered by death— an event not usually associated with individual voluntary choice.

Enjoy this gem. So far, this is my “favorite” sentence:
“The capital gains tax is appropriately characterized as an excise because it is levied on the sale or exchange of capital assets, not on capital assets or gains themselves.”
Tax = [y%] x [Gross gain - $250,000]
I will not go on. Best, Josh
