We agree. The estate tax is fine the way it is, if indexed forever and made permanent. Right now i think it reverts back to some very low number/high rate which does do damage to small business and farms among other things. The reasons for being for this change are far differnt than being for elimination of the tax altogether. What boggles is why guys who dont have big bucks are for repeal. If you want to eliminate taxes, eliminate the 12.5% fica tax on the poor and low middle class.

There is no 'death tax'. Just another Republic Party lie.

BS alert....

You're "rich", you die, Govt confiscates part of what you worked your whole life for.

It's a death tax, because it doesn't happen until your DEATH.

More socialist redistribution of wealth nonsense comrade...
