Default OT WSJ -- Does the estate tax hurt farmers and family businesses?


"Ignoramus29073" wrote in message ...

Given proper avoidance measures it shouldn't hurt, but too often those
measures are not taken in time and if the "Enterprise" in total exceeds the
cap, the enterprise very often must be sold to pay the tax and the business
is then lost to the family. The death tax is immoral and should be abolished
in its entirety. It is double taxation and our country experienced a
revolution over the very same thing.
