The Death Tax... again...

Once again the Republicans tried to pass a massive tax cut tied to an increase in the minimum wage. Not surprisingly, it was blocked by the Democrats.

Proponents of repealing the estate tax (called Death Tax by its detractors) has long been cited by the Washington cronies as a boon for “the family farm and small family business”.

Attention: wealthy assholes and poor morons who listen to them.

FYI; you don’t need to pay any taxes on inherited estates until the value of said estate hits $2,000,0001

In 2009 that exemption will grow to $3,500,001 (7 million for a married couple).

So please, shut the fuck up already about it. If you are not making enough to pay it, you aren’t effected, and if you are making enough to pay it, cry me a fucking river of dollar bills.

And if you think this source is biased then please put your money where you mouth is and provide a reputable site that presents alternate numbers.
