YET ANOTHER REPUBLICAN TAX CUT FOR THE RICH!
(No surprise there)

On Tax Day, April 15, House Republicans will vote to repeal the federal estate tax.
This outrageous REPUBLICAN tax giveaway, is to the wealthiest 0.2%.

The estate tax is an important check on the growing concentration of wealth in America,
and generates needed revenues from those most able to pay. That makes its repeal such
a perfect example of Republicans further stacking the deck in favor of the wealthy, and
increasing economic inequality –  REPUBLICANS want a $269 billion tax giveaway for the rich, while
average Americans work harder than ever to make ends meet.

Noem believes that the tax hurts family farms and ranches at a terrible time and knows firsthand the aftermath the "death tax" can cause.

"When my own dad died, our family was forced to make the choice to either sell land or take out a loan to pay the tax," she says.  "We took out the loan, but that lesson taught me a lot about the reach of government. Death simply should not be a taxable event."

Nunes agrees that estate tax hurts Americans at devastating times and believes it is one of the worst forms of double taxation in our country.

"Money that has already been taxed when a person is alive is taxed again at death," he says.    http://www.agweb.com/article/estate_tax_repeal/

if there needs to be tax cuts/tax subsidies/tax credits etc etc....

THEN THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN....IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT DIFFICULT....the only reason it is, is because we all think the government
'needs to do something', in which case it has to be paid to do it....

what is wrong with us?
