No more death tax: You'd leave the world unmolested by the IRS. No taxation without respiration!

Since abolishing the "death tax" would allow the wealthiest 2% of americans to evade the capital gains tax entirely, I think the second sentence should probably just be changed to "No taxation."
Of course, since we all know that we're going to be in the wealthiest 2% one day, we should totally abolish it anyway!

The tax system right now is so grossly inefficient that it relies on unfair taxes like the death tax. A simpler tax system is necessary. Another interesting solution is the Fair Tax. Read up on it at fairtax.org
