since guys like buffet always want higher tax rates, here is my proposal. Whatever the current exemption is in the death tax and whatever the currernt rate is, i would require all billionaires to declare themselves dead and thus pay the death tax now on amounts above the exemption and at the current rates. That should pay off the deficit for years to come. As an additional benefit for these rich folks because they love double taxation so much for the average dude, i would apply the tax again when they actually do die. I would call it the Buffet tax.
