Unsurprisingly, the House Republicans voted to remove the sunset provisions of the estate tax. This means all those rich shits who spend their lives moving corporations overseas to avoid paying taxes while they fleece 401k plans of the middle class Babbitts will now have the last laugh as they pass on 100% of their ill-gotten wealth to the next generation of American elites.
I’m amazed at how well the Republicans serve their corporate masters. Their knees hit the ground faster than the Democrats and that’s saying a lot. Of course, Republicans are more likely to be filthy rich themselves so I guess its really not all that surprising.
