The more I see you people object, the more it tells me you have no money, you haven't dealt with these issues in the past of government.

You people said the same thing about all the EPA hassles on farmers and ignorant like always didn't know the complete cleaning they did on many.

Its like children running around pulling on Momma Governments dress saying "Mamma, I want!!!"

Haha, I'll be fine. Never had a handout and make good money. Nice post though. How is the pickup truck with the gun rack and confederate flag? Waiting to be called back to your factory job or something?

We can all stereotype.

I am not talking about that, I am talking about how you people dismiss this crap all the time, how you have no understanding of how these taxes harm people, how regulations have harmed people.

You don't know anything about what goes on, you just push for more and more and then the people have to deal with all the BS the government didn't seem to think about.

Look at all you people here mocking the issue.

You people sicken me.

I swear, the criminals today, the thieves!!!!

Many homes are running in the 500+ range, in some large cities, they are hitting a 1 million easy. Add in the fact that most people when they retire are expected to have over 2 million in investments/savings/etc... and you can already see the problem here.

Let me guess, thats rich right?

Which brings me to the "does your family live in a paper bag?"
The sheer amount of out of touch your post makes is amazing.

1. 33% o not own homes
2. Median home value is 239k
3. Of those who do own their own home, many have a mortgage

Elderly often have massive medical debts.

Which is why the average Inheritance is 177k.

You are so out of touch you don't even comprehend it.

Sounds like you are in need of some good estate planning advice.

How are folks supposed to scare somebody if they are required to stick to the facts?

i swear most Hillary supporters must not understand how tenuous our financial system is and what the ramifications will be if buyers of our debt no longer accept "the full faith and credit" of the US, and we lose reserve currency status. perfect storm and we will descend into a very scary economic period. if and when that happens, they will wish to god they had voted for Trump.

stock market is going up - but for all the wrong reasons.

Are you inheriting more than $5,000,000? Then don't worry about it. It doesn't apply to you...

You are so out of touch you don't even comprehend it.

So your argument is... because 33% do not own homes and because half of the country has home values under 239 (which is generalized), and because there are a lot of people paying on homes..

That it is ok others get raped by government?

This is your problem. You people only care about your little clicks and everyone else can go to hell as you rip them off. you have a narrow and ignorant view of so many things.

What about family farms that are inherited? Hmm? Is it ok to stick them with a big bill because the farm is estimated at a certain value?

You have NO clue of what you are talking about.

Earn some real money someday, OWN something and then get back to me.

People are so damn ignorant.
