ATR Will Rate Any and All Votes To Kill the Death Tax
From Ryan Ellis on Thursday, December 3, 2009 12:36 PM
This afternoon, the House will be voting on a bill to permanently create a death tax with a 45 percent rate and a $3.5 million exemption. This bill has many challenges, and will not be supported by Americans for Tax Reform.
The House Republicans will be offering an alternative to kill the death tax permanently. ATR is proud to support and endorse this effort, and will be key-voting in favor of full and permanent death tax repeal in our annual “Hero of the Taxpayer” awards.
Should the House GOP not prevail in their push for full and permanent death tax repeal, they may next attempt to extend the scheduled 2010 temporary repeal of the death tax for a longer period. ATR would be proud to support a temporary extension of 2010’s “no death tax” rules should permanent repeal be off the table. We would urge all members to support it, and will be key-voting in favor of such a vote in our annual “Hero of the Taxpayer” awards.
ATR WILL RATE A VOTE IN FAVOR OF PERMANENTLY KILLING THE DEATH TAX
ATR WILL RATE A VOTE IN FAVOR OF TEMPORARILY KILLING THE DEATH TAX IF PERMANENT REPEAL IS NO LONGER AN OPTION
Comments
At least reduce the death tax to under a 20 percent rate. After all, Obama stated this year to Ghana's parliment that "Repression can take many forms, and too many nations, even those that have elections, are plagued by problems that condemn their people to poverty. No country is going to create wealth if its leaders exploit the economy to enrich themselves....No business wants to invest in a place where the government skims 20 percent off the top....No person wants to live in a society where the rule of law gives way to the rule of brutality and bribery. That is not democracy, that is tyranny, even if occasionally you sprinkle an election in there. And now is the time for that style of government to end."
