Should they remove the estate tax or the death tax?

This is exactly my point about messaging, the idea behind the tax is that we're fixing the gap between the rich and the poor. But what we're really doing is setting banks up to eat homes for pennies on the dollar. (Increasing the gap between the wealthy and the poor)

In reality higher taxes dont make people better people, if they did we'd all be living under a king right now.

OK but how do you square that yammering with the facts?

Poor people don't get the inheritance tax. It kicks in at like 1.5 million or something.
