State Legislators in the Commonwealth of Virginia recently voted to repeal the death tax. The idea of state officials being first in line to collect someone's inheritance before the body's even cold is quite disgusting. That didn't stop Democratic Gov. Mark Warner for vetoing the bill however.
What is most disturbing to me, is Socialist Democratic Senator Linda Puller's attitude toward taxpayer money. Even though she voted in favor of the repeal, she has gone on record as having changed her mind. "I've learned more about it, that most of the money goes to a very few people," Puller said.
This is representative of how most (if not all) Democrats and even a handful of Republicans look at taxpayer dollars. In their mind, it isn't your money, it's theirs. You should be eternally grateful to those fucks that they let you use it. Repealing the collection of taxes from the dearly departed is viewed by congressmen as GIVING money to 'a very few people." (Dead people, at that). This notion is nothing new, but it still makes me want to scream bugs me every time I hear a tax grabber say something so ignorant, blatantly callous, and condescending.
