I'd rather they take the money and burn it than a lot of things our Federal Government subsidizes.

I think the word subsidize is a real stretch when attempting to relate it to the estate tax. They have already taken a bounteous share of what the rich make in comparison to the poor, but to have to give it back is foreign to the nature.

LOl...no kidding. I work hard (except when I am perusing FR!)...I want to give my money/assets to my children, not some a$$hole on the country's dole. The tax needs to go.
