I don't get the "death tax"..

When I was in the hospital the guy next to me had a last name I recognized, then it dawned on me, a section of the county near my house shared his last name.

He was telling me his family had farmed Loudoun County since the 1700's. When his mother died the farm was willed to him, he could not afford the inheritance tax and sold the farm to a developer (a family member) to pay the tax. The developer will let him stay on the farm till he and his wife pass, then the farm will be sold off to builders. He will be the last of his family line to farm or at a minimum own a chuck of land in Loudoun.

Farming in my county has died off, but it still seems a sin that a farm that has been in the family since the 1700's had to be sold to pay inheritance taxes.

Our business can suffer the same faith. Our government does not care about the makers except to finance the takers.

holy s h i t !!!! Lock this nowwwwwwww!!!!!

But seriously, everybody knows that our esteemed elected officials could not possibly care any less about us. They just don't and never will regardless of who they are or their party affiliation. They want our money and they know better than you and I what to do with it. More Is Never Enough.

So the government sucks monkey ass, this has been known by many for a long time. The 9/11 planes crashed in the wrong state.

Too bad they didnt die this year. Due to an oversite, no death tax in 2010.

OK.. so the Washington pick pockets want one last time to bend you over.. WHY 55%??

They tax you all your life on that money as you earned it and they still want more..

I saw a special on family farms and it was mentioned the death tax kills the farm after the farmer dies..

If........every single american refused to pay taxes? They can't throw everyone in jail nor afford to. a Township rebellion is not enough, it needs a nationwide rebellion. But who am i kidding, the idiots in this country need to conform and be politically correct with plastic personalities and artificial smiles. They all ask how high when told to jump.

I've already taken that first step, but I'm not a liberty to discuss the details on an open forum.

Although it is sh1tty to see the farm go,

I must ask this? How come grandma's farm wasn't split between all the kids into smaller parcels? That's how it rolls around here.

Grandma got bentover in the grave, she should have had the foresight to hire an attorney.

I am all about America being a country of self-made men, not one of trust fund babies like Paris Hilton, who coincidentally have very good attorneys.

Sadly said, it's probably too late for this country to ever have a real tea party. They have built themselves strong, weakened the spirit of the citizen, protected themselves with laws, and left little time for the average to do anything other than work. This country needs an actual tea party, and i don't mean the clowns in the political party.
