Bush hasnt been POTUS for 2 years nowI'm guessing an across the board flat tax rate, designed to produce the same amount of revenue we are now getting,
would raise your taxes. Unless you happen to be very very rich.
Am I wrong?
I don't care if it raises, lowers, or stays the same... equal treatment by government... not selective equal treatment for some subjective bullshit view of 'fairness'You hardly (that's NOT-hardly, for you Bush-fans) sound like someone who's gotta worry-about Estate Taxes.
You can voluntarily give as much as you want... and many people give just fine without being forced to by government.. and regardless of any politics, I applaud those who give charitably of their own free will
You think all taxes should be voluntary?
Inheritance should be taxed the same as income, because that's what it is.
It has already been taxed.... when initially earned... leaving things to your immediate family upon your death should be no concern to the government
Absolute rubbish and a flat out lieI believe I already said that.
Nice try
It has already been taxed.... when initially earned... leaving things to your immediate family upon your death should be no concern to the government
That's irrelevant. My income has already been taxed. If I, for example, hired a contractor to put a roof on my house, and paid him out of my already taxed wages,
that hardly makes the case that the contractor shouldn't have to pay income taxes does it?
You are paying for a service... where that person is in your employ... either directly or thru a service you purchased....
This is about already earned income and property.. which is already in your family.. you are not hiring your son or daughter or wife to earn your property... they are just receiving it after you no longer exist according to the government

They are receiving it as income. And it's not limited to immediate family.
I find it extremely illogical to argue that someone should pay lower taxes on money they receive for doing nothing than they would on money they worked for.
Makes no sense.

"death tax" is 'Bagger-speak; i.e. slang, for the ill-educated.
WOW, so now the force of law is willinglyHow "odd" that everyone has willingly-paid Estate Taxes (since 1916)..........until The BUSH Family decided we needed to change-the-rules.

"A common, and misguided, criticism of the estate tax is that individuals who work hard and save their money should be entitled to pass on the fruits of that labor to their family. I am not against working hard, saving money, or taking care of your family.
However we must acknowledge that the person who accumulates wealth in this country was not able to do that independently. The simple fact of living in America, a country with stable markets and unparalleled opportunity fueled in part by government investment in technology and research (something my family has plenty of firsthand experience of), provide an irreplaceable foundation for success and have created a society which makes it possible for some men, women and their children to live an elegant life.
I attended the University of Washington under the G.I. Bill, and then became a lawyer enjoying a successful career that allowed me to provide well for my family so that they in turn were able to create their own wealth. So I believe that those of us who have benefited so greatly from our country's investment in our lives should be asked to give a portion of our wealth back to invest in opportunities for the future."

There is something from the Far Left that is so intolerant of Family Wealth, they despise it so much, some seem totally incapable of reason on the matter. The really perceive Government as all powerful, all seeing, the source of all wealth. Fucking Totalitarian, if you ask me.
