Is inheritance tax really a burning issue?

If you earn your pay and pay taxes to the government at the time that money is earned, who does that money belong to when you die?

Is there a right to property? Some on the left will tell you that "all property is theft".

Some on the left will say "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs".

Somehow I knew you would pounce on that one part of my response, and ignore all that stuff about income tax and George Bush etc.

This is actually an anarchist slogan. Very few people on the left are anarchists. Most liberals pay rent or mortgages and would not take kindly to having their property liberated by an anarchist.
