We are in the process of settling three estates right now and it is sickening what the heirs are having to pay! One estate alone owes over $35 million in just fed taxes. This estate was set up and run by the best tax attorneys and accountants that money can buy.
Makes my head hurt.
Most people could run a small country with that. The fed government will waste it on a few parties for “training”...puke. Or another vacation for the Obama’s.
$50M is chump change compared to the Heinz wealth. That kind of money is ALWAYS very well protected. And, in the Heinz-Kerry situation I’d bet there’s a very solid ante-nuptual in place, and trusts for her and John Heinz’s blood heirs.
I’m surprised the Soprano actor didn’t have an agent/lawyer who handled his financial matters better than to get caught up in that big inheritance tax mess.

YES, I think it is another odd coincidence for the State Dept in the midst of another controversy.
I’m relieved.
We can only hope. OTOH, whoever replaces him will probably be twice as horrible. I seem to be developing a poor attitude. (Five years of obozo can do that to a person.)
No way is Kerry going to take the ferry to and from Martha's Vineyard with the hoi polloi.
"John Kerry has private jet, Teresa Heinz Kerry's 'Flying Squirrel', a Gulfstream V, worth about $35 million, a deluxe model with a plasma TV, two bathrooms, fancy mahogany and burlwood paneling, and gold-plated fixtures, according to Drudge."
