Same with the death tax.

Funny thing about the "death tax",
the person paying the tax isn't actually dead.


Of course it is. The tax isn't paid by those who are inheriting
it is paid by the estate of the dead dude.

And the IRS does not care what you have to do to come up with the cash to
pay it if you inherit property or a business. Many a family had to sell
their house and move or sell a business to raise the cash. Proper planning
is essential if you have a decent sized estate.
