And estates get taxed why??
To Democrats, if you’re dead, you’re still considered a living, breathing (and voting) citizen, and still on the hook to pay taxes one last time.
“estates get taxed why?”
To prevent transgenerational independence. Because the government really owns your money, and you’re merely holding it in trust until you die. Also because the government knows better how to spend for the common good, and your family’s welfare is less important than others’. Also as well because trustfund babies are unpopular.
