Re: [QUAD-L] Estate Tax

You pay taxes on money that you earn, then you pay taxes on things you buy with that same money. They get you in both directions. It isn't really a tax on your estate after you died. It is a tax on the schmuck you leave a million bucks to. Actually, its a tax on schmucks that become millionaires. This is just George Bush trying to get his dads money. I think rich people should pay big taxes. If you tax poor people you won't get the money you need for the government to build a new roadway to Sam Walton's headquarters and his little kids are starving for that road   john ;).   In a message dated 8/29/2005 7:47:57 P.M.

If I had money that I already paid taxes on when I earned it in the first place (income tax, capital gains tax) then why should the government be able to tax that money again when I die and leave it anyone I damn well chose to leave it to?
