Hey JaTo, old buddy, what's your understanding of Bush's desire to phase out the estate tax entirely? Isn't that something Bush is on record as wanting to do, as when he calls it the death tax? And wasn't that Bush desire to end the estate tax part of what the NYT was talking about? You claim you've been following this issue, and yet you say that this change only affects lower wage earners. Huh?

Ending the estate tax, which now ONLY hits estates in the $$$MILLIONS, implies the revenues lost would be made up elsewhere. How is that a victory for the lower 90% of us taxpayers? By trickle-down Reaganomics (aka "voodoo economics" per Bush's dad)?

D'ya wanna do a correction on your position before someone else calls BS on you calling BS on someone else?
