Jesus H. Christ, that is not how executive orders work, if it was a tax thing it would mandate the IRS to write regulations to do x thing, which could very well be an inheritance thing, it wouldnt take effect, the thing wouldnt exist yet, at most a framework there is not actual implementation in EO's.

Seems about 1/3 of the posts in this thread are people asking for the specific legislation/Executive order that caused someone to lose a farm yesterday.
The truth is, the American public has great empathy with family farmers, and it was heartbreaking the number of farms that were lost to generational farmers in the 1980's and 90's.
So pretty much everyone IS interested.
OP - got anything - at all - to back up the incredible tale you told in the first post?
"did you ever have your Dog die when you were a kid? Well, losing your family farm is like losing 100 pets all at the same time"
Strange...I swear I saw this somewhere else on social media yesterday/today. What are the chances this is an original/factual story if the same phrase is being used elsewhere?
Biden changed a bunch of stuff yesterday, and this farmer will lose One of her Two farms now because of his Executive Orders.
Something to do with Death taxes, & Fed farm loans. The stuff you hear, and read about, devastates some people's lives. She was almost in tears after losing her Daddy's Farm he left to her just 1 day into Joe Biden's tenure.
She pointed out that most "farm subsidies" have been hijacked, and re-routed to free school meals, & the remaining "subsidies" are just loan guarantees....not grants/giveaways like the media leads us all to believe.
She said the Federal Government is putting our food supply in peril. Very sad.
I thought the right wanted to end socialist programs like farm subsidies. Now you're complaining because they're ending?
Y'all make up what's left of your minds. "Loan guarantees" helps people help themselves. "Subsidies" are handouts. Tell your buddy to pull herself up by her bootstraps. If the business isn't viable, it doesn't deserve to be propped up with taxpayer dollars. Sorry, not sorry.
Your food supply has already been compromised by the reduction in the number of FDA inspectors on the job, and by the republicans refusing a lot of information that should be included on labels so consumers can make informed choices.

OK, I need to read through the article and look into it, but could it really be related to the recent stimulus bill from December? It seems to have farm related stuff.
He changed the tax structure on inheritance. Many family farms and small businesses will be similarly impacted. Not that the Democratic party cares about that. Small businesses don't provide the campaign contributions of big, foreign corporations.
If she had enough inheritance from that farm to have to worry about that law, she should be thankful, not upset.
