Maybe you can, but why would you do it? And how? By accumulating wealth which will be passed to the state at time of your death? But who would care for you in the old age if other people did not raise their children?
Hmmmm, contrary to 'conservative' thought I would because it is my duty. As a Christian I freely donate my time and my resources to my community. More money in my pocket, higher donations to charity
By accumulating wealth which will be passed to the state at time of your death?
Ah, yes, 'conservative' thought. The estate tax should be eliminated. My money should go to collateral heirs, friends, family, charities, etc. without the government taking their chunk. I have been taxed on that money throughout my life, why should the government be allowed to take money that has already been taxed?
But who would care for you in the old age if other people did not raise their children?
You make it sound as if I don't pay others to have children, they won't. Of course, if I wasn't taxed already at such a high rate, I may be inluenced to have my own children.
