Right, but I was just pointing out that the big benefit was for the rich.  The idea is 
- give a big benefit to the rich
and a smaller one to the middle class and get the masses to vote for you.  This is why 
GW was talking about raising the
limit on inheritance tax or eliminating it completely - the benefit is mostly for the 
wealthy.  The law was originally
enacted to prevent plutocracy and it would be completely irresponsible to repeal it.
