Taxed To Death At Death

The Heritage Foundation | June 27, 2010 

The death tax, which does not exist at present, is currently set to come back from the dead on January 1, 2011. The tax on dying will increase from zero percent to 55 percent overnight. But Congress is intent on making a bad problem worse. Heritage tax expert Curtis Dubay explores a liberal bill that would drastically increase the death tax at the worst possible time. “Such a policy move would be a body blow to a weakly recovering economy and would clearly signal to everyone that this Congress has no intention of breathing new life into the American dream,” he explains.

Instead of raising taxes further still, Congress should kill the death tax once and for all. Watch our videos on the death tax!
