You make no sense at all. you ASSUME that they would put their money (note, it is already their money, it is NOT governments) to do as you say.Where is the handout? It is already their money...The party of the rich, for the rich, by the rich. Once again, the wolves shear the sheep while the sheep cheer them on.
Republicans Push 269 Billion Handout For Millionaire Heirs And Heiresses
excerpt:
WASHINGTON -- House Republicans this week will vote to hand the heirs and heiresses of America's largest fortunes a $269 billion tax break by repealing the federal inheritance tax.
The legislation would shield the very richest families from taxes on the fortunes they inherit. After years of GOP attacks on the inheritance tax, also known as the estate tax, only a few thousand of the wealthiest families are subjected to it -- 4,700 total in 2013, according to the Joint Committee on Taxation. Only individual fortunes worth over $5.43 million can be taxed under current law, an amount that doubles to $10.86 million for wealthy couples. The Republican proposal would eliminate all of these estates -- which are over 15,700 percent richer than the median American household -- from taxation.
The "Handout" comes later, when the children use the largess to 'donate' to those who write laws, which aid the the very wealthy to secure for them more and more wealth - see the Brother's Koch for an example. And if you're of the mind to, see in your minds eye the dystopian future if the Republicans get their way; how will our nation look when all of the wealth is hidden behind gated enclaves, and the hoi polloi live from hand to mouth?
How long will it take, before what the power elite fear the most, rises up? Anyone with a fundamental knowledge of history should understand how the current iteration of the far right today can and will lead to violence unless they wake up.
See, for example the list of popular revolts over the millenniums:
List of revolutions and rebellions - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The First, the Set rebellion of 2740 BC; the most recent, 2014–15 Yemeni coup.
In between, thousands of events - some great, some small but all violent.
Yet you have no problem in taking money from people and putting it to use for what you want. Its only those who inherit that are not permitted to proctect their own interests?
Oh, and that is STILL NOT a handout.
Meaningless question.Do you know how many families will benefit from this repeal?You make no sense at all. you ASSUME that they would put their money (note, it is already their money, it is NOT governments) to do as you say.Where is the handout? It is already their money...The party of the rich, for the rich, by the rich. Once again, the wolves shear the sheep while the sheep cheer them on.

Says he who knows he cannot support his positions with anything substantive.Good grief, it's amazing how brainwashed people can become...
Wait...you believe the government should provide firearms for those what cannot afford them?Let's make health care a right: "A well regulated system of health care, being necessary for the security of the people of our nation, free and universal preventative health care, and major medical care for serious and chronic injury or disease, shall not be infringed.
Interesting.
Who knew you were such a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment, believing that the right to arms is meaningless unless one has the means to exercise it.Not only guns...Says he who knows he cannot support his positions with anything substantive.Good grief, it's amazing how brainwashed people can become...

Then let's get rid of real estate tax for the lower incomes...It should be repealed, the money has already been taxed
What's a real estate tax? No diss intended. I'm just not sure what Moonglow's talking about.Then let's get rid of real estate tax for the lower incomes...It should be repealed, the money has already been taxed
Not that I'm not always in favor of eliminating taxes in principle, but why?
I thought Rebpubs were against freeloaders and handouts.
Also, the ABA and every CPA lobby will never let this one go anywhere as Trusts and estate planning are a major profit center for them.
The decedents of a wealthy person did NOT accumulate or earn the income.
They did nothing to generate the income.
They did nothing to produce the industry/jobs/innovations that produced the fortune.
What did the government do to earn that money? What did the government do to generate that income? What did the government produce that created that fortune?
Did they earn it BECAUSE of US society AND our laws? Hell yeah!
One of these days you'll put up a post that shows you to be something other than a mindless partisan bigot.Republicans hate this country. They want it to die. They don't want to support this country in any way. But they are so stupid, they don't realize they have no where else to go. Who wants American Republicans? Unless it's Bush or Cheney because other countries want to put them on trial for being war criminals.
I just thought I'd point out to the ten or so people in this thread lying about "family farms". I know you've heard it on the radio and on the internet over and over - but guess what?
No one has been able to document a single example of a family farm being lost to estate taxes.
Ever.
We have so many people who can't see a fat man standing beside a thin one without coming to the conclusion the fat man got that way by taking advantage of the thin one. - Ronald Reagan
The guy who chose to tilt the playing field toward the fat guy 34 years ago???
Nah., Gov't policy doesn't create wealth you tool!

Conservatives/GOP ALWAYS trying to keep the AmeriKa THEY love to be an aristocracy over a merit based society. Weird
Starting on 3rd base to them means everyone's is equal, lol
To be accurate, over half of the taxes collected on this are paid by the 1-1000th richest, and even there it's not like their kids are being hurt. Their estates avoid the taxes mostly by giving to private charities, like the Robert Woods Johnson fund. No one, no one, no one, at Johnson and Johnson wants Woody Johnson anywhere near the corporation as the man can't even run an NFL team, where it's literally impossible not to make money .... I mean you cannot help but make money if you're rich enough to buy one.I thought Rebpubs were against freeloaders and handouts.
Also, the ABA and every CPA lobby will never let this one go anywhere as Trusts and estate planning are a major profit center for them.
We are against freeloaders and handouts, which is why we oppose the government demanding that people give their money to them to redistribute, rather than giving it to the person of their choice.
But thanks for sharing your theory that the government is taking people's money in order to prevent handouts, you disingenuous prick. It was the stupidest attempt to be clever that I've heard all week.
Please explain how the government deserves the money he worked for and his kids don't.
I would if you would tell me first how buying a stock like a Microsoft and holding that stock for years resulting in a stock holding that is worth millions more that was paid for that stock, what actual "work" did the initial purchaser of that Microsoft stock actually do?
I have had the benefit of profiting from an increase in a stock price. I didn't do any "work" for that increase to take place.
How about you? Ever bought shares of stock? What "work" did you do to cause an increase in the share price?
How about you take those millions of stock and invest in the safety and security of T bills and other government guaranteed investments, what work did that investor do to guarantee the safety of this type of investment?
And it's funny how you try and make it sound like these kids of ultra wealthy parents are going to suffer if they can't keep every single dollar mom and dad have. They won't miss any meals.

The the less than genius kids get jobs at the Foundations, where they're paid well and don't have chances to get into too much trouble.
God forbid the kids of the superrich are actually allowed to run anything we have our 401K pittances in. Seriously, rent the documentary Born Rich, by one of the Johnson heirs, to see the level of cognitive function inbreeding brings.
