The ultimate socialist leveller is the tax on estates. But the populists love the idea too, because, next to politicians, they resent rich people the most. Like all socialist ideas, it has its best chance of survival when it affects the least number of people. Progressive tax rates weren't exposed as the fraud they are until inflation put the middle class into the higher tax brackets. Today the massive prosperity from Republicans cutting taxes on capital formation has brought the oppressive estate tax squarely into the lives of middle class voters. Beat it one more time, Democrats, please - PLEASE!!!...
