The "death tax" was supposed to be 0% in 2010 and reset to 55% in 2011. Obama's budget calls for the 45% rate to stay in effect from 2009 through 2010, eliminating the 0% year. The $3.5/$7 million exemption would remain in effect. I am not a fan of most of the "changes" being made in Washington. Especially changes like this that are snuck-into the budget 127 pages deep to hopefully go unnoticed. However, it is important to remain factual when pointing out the flaws of the chosen one. |

It still sucks, just another time the gov get's to tax money they've already taxed at least once before. Warren Buffet who's a Obama adviser was a big proponent for higher death taxes, while most people with less money would rather give more to their families. And don't forget the state and local taxes said money will be taxed on. |

It wasn't just on page 127, it was in a footnote on page 127. Stuff like this is why I am still waiting to see what kind of easter eggs are buried in the stimulus bill. |

Should be nothing at all or maybe in this socialist land we now live maybe 5 or 10% 45% is crazy considering its money that has already been taxed more than once.

Sorry for the title I thought it had been repealed long ago.
For the record its nobodies place to say that you or I have made to much money. This ass in ofice now seems to think he knows just how much money everyone should have. |
