Hey, I'm all for lower taxes, I just think the estate tax is about the lowest priority tax to be cut. You want to stimulate employment? Let's tax about cutting the employer's half of FICA. It's a hidden, sleazy, and regressive tax. Of all the Federal taxes I pay, FICA is on my most hated list
We need to talk about cutting the spending side of things before we should be cutting taxes any further anyway. We are borrowing too much money for my comfort. When the Baby Boomers retire, we are going to have a tough time with the bill

youbet said:I concur Hamlet......... The way tax loopholes are normally structured, only the ultra-rich may avail themselves. Upper middle class folks who've managed to accumulate a few million via saving, investing, entrepreneurship, etc., get the shaft. Let the exemption be 5 million, as you suggest, and then tax the crap out of amounts over that.
