How many people receive this,top 2%, 1%? Do we care about them?


It doesnt matter how many there are. It shouldnt happen. Why should the guy down the street be taxed when he dies and you arent taxed when you die?

They cant. Theyre being taxed even when they die

The question in the first place is why should anyone inherit anything that they didn't work for? Something for nothing, is that what you're arguing for?

Now you're just being ridiculous. I'm pretty sure anyone in the 1% can petition the government - aka pay off politicians - to air their grievances while they're still alive. The thing is, most people in that tax bracket have enough money to pay accountants and tax attorneys to get around major tax expenditures. Look at how Trump's father transferred wealth to Donald that he never earned, and didn't have to pay inheritance tax on. The dead person in the OP either made a mistake, or just didn't GAF.
