I grew up in a USA in which Aristocracy and Imperialism was considered a bad thing. Whatever divisive issues have arisen in the last 5 years, I like to think that these are still points which most Americans can agree upon.
When the Senate returns from Summer Recess, they will be voting upon the repeal of the Estate Tax. As a tax which only affects those passing on $1.5 Million or more, it is a tax which discourages aristocratic inheritance. (1)
MoveOn has a petition to sign, and I encourage everyone who reads this blog to contact their Senator to express their opposition to the repeal of the estate tax, since, frankly...we've been giving the ultra-wealthy enough tax cuts in the last 5 years.
