Reply #2: Eisenhower's rate, with a 99% on everything over ten million

[Warpy]

until the deficit is paid down to a reasonable level, our industry has been restarted, and marginal workers no longer are paid so little they have to live in shelters. I'd apply the same rate to inheritances, with a five million dollar exemption.

We not only have to improve the revenue stream, we have to abort the process toward an entrenched aristocracy.

No true democracy has ever coexisted with an aristocracy. The aristocracy has always managed to pervert it and try to march it toward either monarchy or fascism.
