"It's a very equitable tax," Buffett said. "It's in keeping with the idea of equality of opportunity in this country, not giving incredible head starts to certain people who were very selective about the womb from which they emerged"

Buffett, quit trying to decide what happens with our estates, mind your own.

The founding fathers put no godammed estate tax in the Constitution.

Democratic opponents have argued that a full repeal would cost the U.S. Treasury about $1 trillion over the next decade, and principally benefit the ultra-rich.

So...the two richest guys in the world...how much will they be paying?

Right...

Yeah right and Buffett was lucky to emerge from the right womb. He's all for socialist consfiscation of inherited wealth... as long as his wealth is left alone. Just don't let his liberal hypocrisy detain you from wanting to have the same advantage he just obtained: namely that you should never have to pay a single dime of an immoral, illegal and oppressive tax. Watch what he does, not what says, on the death tax.
