"En masse"?...I've never had that impression.How does the relatively low number of graves robbed justify the act?
I'm against taxes on capital, such as the estate tax. Taxes on capital are terrible taxes.
But that's not the point. The point is to understand the facts to understand the debate. When they cut the estate tax, the GOP made it sound as if small businesses were torn apart en mass by this tax when in fact it effects ("affects?") very few people. Rather than rely on an economic debate, it was framed as an emotive one designed to play on people's fears, which were generally unfounded.
I personally don't care about whatever emotional appeal anyone wants to use. It's just wrong to go in and commit what amounts to nothing more than high tech grave looting.
