Should they remove the estate tax or the death tax?

The inheritance tax is a crime. A crime people allow because they hate chad.

The only people it hurts are poor people

The poor own homes dude, just not in your state.

...
Its a tax on the poor to feed the banks.

I dont refer to poor people as homeless.

I refer to them as with a mortgage they're struggling to but successfully paying off.

In your own state, that would be at least 1.5 mil right there.

So just to be clear, in the span of like three forum pages, you've gone from declaring the inheritance tax to be something that "only hurts poor people" to something that affects "poor people who own homes" ... ie. the minority of all poor people, because only 39% of low-income households own the home they live in ... to "poor people" with 1.5 million dollars of net worth for their descendents to inherit!

That's quite a broad definition of poverty [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Bro, there is more to American than the top 1% and the bottom.. theres in fact 98% of Americans.

Yes, I define any struggling american with a mortage, to be a poor, if you have two mortages then you're fine.

But poor does not only mean "you're staying in someone's basement out of charity"

that's poverty.
