Just hire a stable of lawyers and accountants like the Kennedy’s, Rahmbo, Trump, Gates, Rockefeller, Buffet (and no doubt the Clintons) etc, to set up “trusts”

Then leave your kids allowances paid from the trust so they are wealthy enough to spend their lives lobbying to take other people’s money to spend on the poor, ala “liberal philanthropists”

Barney, every kid who ever worked the family farm now owes you a butt kicking for being stupid.

Actually, it’s the federal government who didn’t do anything to deserve it. I am so sick of them all. I’m an all-American, born and raised and for the first time in my life I am thinking about retiring elsewhere.

Yeah, well, what did the government do to deserve it?

Nothing, but they are willing to kill you at the drop of a hat for resisting them. Until we can say the same, they have all the power.

No, this is GREAT news!!! This means that Rep. Frank will support the ending of all copyrights upon the death of the author, correct? I mean, now that Walt Disney is dead, why should anyone else profit from Mickey Mouse? It's not like they created Mickey, right?

This is hypocrisy one-oh-one, folks...

Sorry about the unfortunate boating accident. Never know when those may happen.

January is the time for the Republicans to snatch the Death Tax away from the grave-robbers and put the farms and businesses back into the hands of the grieving families.

The government didn't do anything to earn a double-tax either, Barney, you thief!!!!

It didn’t use force against them, as they would say.

Keep in mind that, regardless of what tax apologists claim, taxes are nothing more than protection money.

Barney Frank IS NOT a “socialist”. He’s a hardcore Soviet-type communist/Marxist. As Rush used to say, “Don’t doubt me”.

He has no heirs so he doesn’t give a good crap about taxing those of us who do. He’s anti-children, anti-wealth and anti-American. Plus he’s a first class 3 house hypocrite.

I hope he does ‘In testate’ and his criminal wife (under fraud investigation re the college she ran/ruined) is left with nothing but his smelly underwear.

Barney is a fag ... you are thinking of Vermont’s own socialist Bernie ... whose wife made off with the money.
