Maybe an oatmeal cookie, rich with raisins and cranberries. A little old fashioned, a little today. Or those peanut butter cookies with the fork mashed in the top and sold in the grammar school cafeteria for 2 or 3 cents.
The Trumps had an estate to be passed on. I doubt the Clintons did. But the Bush family would have, so that’s a comparison that could be made.
Yes, every family looked at how to reduce their death taxes and followed procedures that their accountants recommended. That’s why getting rid of death taxes was such a big deal. My only concern is that Trump is centered in NY and the state government is not one I would trust to do a fair evaluation of what was acceptable at the time, and what was not. Nor would I trust the media to describe what others of the time were doing.
But you CERTAINLY deserve that cookie.
Mmmmmmm
Ok...now officially craving oatmeal cookies. Going to have to call in some favors...lol!
