Most importantly, the very rich can get accountants to set up trusts and entities that allow them to pass on most of their wealthy untouched.

The death tax only affects the middle class - people who have scraped together a few 10s or 100s of thousands, maybe even (gasp) a million bucks, in the hope that they can give their kids the opportunity they didn’t have.

The rich just try to pull up the ladder. There are no liberals. It’s all just a scam to take your stuff & have you thank them for it.

“Most importantly, the very rich can get accountants to set up trusts and entities that allow them to pass on most of their wealthy untouched.”

this statement makes no sense.

You mean to say that a middle class person with any wealth to pass on can’t hire an accountant to set up a trust and entity?
