Bushies want to take us back to before the Great Depression when the rich paid almost no taxes and the monopolists and Rockefellar types owned half the country and the poor and middleclas were weak and even starving.

To support such policies is to be foolish if you're not rich and greedy if you are. If the rich estates are not taxed when they change hands, the government will go broke. We all depend on those revenues, and it keeps things fair. Otherwise, we will create a class of ultra-rich inheritors much greater than the one we have today. And the middleclass will once again take it on the chin.

Don't believe the lies about Bushie tax policies helping average people. They get crumbs plus fewer services and higher local taxes. The uppper middleclass do OK but the rich really clean up. It's taxation by the rich for the rich and Bushies are lying through their teeth to claim anything differently.

If Bill Gates can pass along 50 billion tax-free, that amount will just keep growing, though his heirs will have done nothing to earn it. Multiply that times a 100,000 and you get the idea. Trillions are being shifted to the very rich at the expense of the average people and local governments.
