Getting a Win on the Death Tax
CSE Web ^ | April 30, 2002 | Paul Beckner

Senate Republicans, led by Phil Gramm (R-Tex) and John Kyl (R-Ariz) played hardball with Majority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) and won. They stuck together and forced Daschle to agree to a vote to eliminate the Death Tax. Permanently. This is a big tactical victory and now we must rally the troops, organize and mobilize the grassroots and turn this process victory into a policy victory for America.

So as an overtaxed middle-classer, all I have to do now to get some tax relief is die. Which is cool, because it would be hard to sign the 1040A with all that rigamortis anyway...

Just kidding. Glad this is kind of justice is finally starting to move forward. Have to assume that sawed off punk Dashole will probably have strings attached to it.
