I'm not a fan of increases in capital gains or inheritance taxes. Remember than increases in capital gains affect everyone who owns stock, not just the super wealthy. Inheritance tax seems like double taxation to me. Since the parent paid taxes when they earned the money, why should the child have to pay tax on it again?
