In the US in recent decades Americas wealthy have campaigned to keep hereditary wealth alive. The whole reason behind estate taxes was to keep people from inheriting massive hereditary wealth thereby eliminating any need to work or educate or be of any use to a society other than lobbying congress to tax them less and spend money in high end shops here and abroad | |

They'd like to eliminate the Inheritance tax altogether. The reduction and 1 year elimination of this tax has seem a major loss in revenue for the Fed. ____________ Proud member of TSWB.

Maybe out of G8 supreme empirials union only america has 0% heredity tax. What I heard is in japan heredity tax is 80%. What incentive do I have to bust my ass for my entire life if I can't leave the fruits of my labors to my family? I sure as hell don't want the majority of the it going to the government! | |

Maybe out of G8 supreme empirials union only america has 0% heredity tax. What I heard is in japan heredity tax is 80%. The inheritance tax makes it inconvenient to not have the ill gotten finances, made by the blood sweat and tears of their wage slaves, passed on untouched from generation to generation. It is so inconvenient to have to continue to provide subsistance to the wage slaves in order to maintain the bulk of such wealth. ____________ Janice | |

ill gotten finances The very idea that wealth should be horded within families from generation to generation, at the expense of others is a major issue. The fact that most of the work creating this wealth is quite often not that of those whom hold the wealth. Is it possible to be decent to others and wealthy? Certainly. But it is the exception, and not the rule. ____________ Janice | |

Maybe out of G8 supreme empirials union only america has 0% heredity tax. What I heard is in japan heredity tax is 80%. Soooo you've accumulated more that $6.5 million? I don't see passing ones wealth to our children as benefitting them. I recall the founding fathers being against Hereditary titles and wealth. But I might be mistaken as well or maybe they were ____________ Proud member of TSWB. End terrorism by building a school | |

Maybe out of G8 supreme empirials union only america has 0% heredity tax. What I heard is in japan heredity tax is 80%. No, I haven't, but what if I did? It should be at my choosing as to what to do with that generated wealth, not forcefully taken by the government. You may not see it as benefiting my children, but I see it as allowing them the freedom to live life without all the financial worries I had... and it would go to more than just my kids. I would give some of it away to charity, but at my choosing and the government isn't a charity. ...and back to: what incentive do I have to begin building a $6.5 million dollar fortune if at the end it's all going to be taken away (assuming a major 80% cut is given to the gov't like that which I quoted in my post). | |

The fact that most of the work creating this wealth is quite often not that of those whom hold the wealth. So the Government did the work creating the wealth it holds? Don't think so! Under your rules it must give it all up. But you also want it to get more money it didn't work to create. Lets go a bit more abstract on you. First remember the inheritance rule about a gift to a person while they are alive counting as inheritance and being subject to the death tax. So you can't give it to them while you are alive or dead. Now for the abstraction. Dad and Mom pay the college tuition of the child. That lets the child earn a lot more over their lifetime. Shouldn't every penny of that extra be taken away as a death tax? Isn't that just the same as handing them the keys to a going business? ____________ | |

Inheritance tax is different in the UK. Most estates don't have to pay Inheritance Tax because they're valued at less than the threshold (£325,000 in 2011-12). Since October 2007, married couples and registered civil partners can effectively increase the threshold on their estate when the second partner dies - to as much as £650,000 in 2011-12. Their executors or personal representatives must transfer the first spouse or civil partner's unused Inheritance Tax threshold or 'nil rate band' to the second spouse or civil partner when they die. That means nil tax for the vast majority Any gifts you make to individuals will be exempt from Inheritance Tax as long as you live for seven years after making the gift. These sorts of gifts are known as 'Potentially Exempt Transfers' (PETs). However if you give an asset away at any time, but keep an interest in it - for example you give your house away but continue to live in it rent-free - this gift will not be a potentially exempt transfer. They are talking about changing this. | |

Maybe out of G8 supreme empirials union only america has 0% heredity tax. What I heard is in japan heredity tax is 80%. I think Skil might be saying apply the death tax the same way to everyone, regardless of how little or how much one could accumulate in his or her lifetime. Perhaps this is at odds with views he has expressed elsewhere. Maybe the way to go is that the tax should be at a lower rate for those in lower income brackets? But I'm sure someone else would scream bloody murder about that. But what do you think, Ozz? | |
