Because he's supposed to be 16 years old, and is partially disabled as well? I'm sorry, I just don't see Walt Jr as any kind of successful criminal. Not that this is anything bad, but rather to the contrary - he is supposed to be a nice, intelligent, inoffensive kid like everyone would like their hypothetical teenager to be.
Now if you said *Skylar* would take over the business, that I would find almost believable. She has already demonstrated a willingness to commit crimes (cooking books, hiring a guy to scare Bogdan into selling the car wash, and getting thugs to procure the all-important IRS payoff), and she certainly doesn't lack in the chutzpah department.
Frankly, I really admire Skylar and I can't figure out why some people don't like her. Walt has treated her abominably, and anything she's done to him has been, IMO, fully justified. Walt should have confided in her much earlier and saved himself a lot of grief.
