Dead people should be completely stripped of wealth and property, and the young should ALL start out from an equally impoverished position. Then, even the children of the wealthy would feel compelled to join our all volunteer military.

Who better to tax than the dead, the people UNDER the tree, or, if you prefer, the worthless Paris Hilton's of the world?

Did you know that in the US just 10% of the population contributes to 95% of the estate tax intake?

In Germany the inheritance estate amounts to approx. 200 billion Euro annually. The tax revenue from that: 4 billion Euro.
That's just 2%, Ted.

Thus using your argument and -isms, based on the estate taxation structures, the USA is much more socialistic than Germany.

Get back to me when you get serious.
