Why isn't inheritance tax 100%? It makes absolutely no sense that some people get shit that they didn't work for for free. And it's not like anyone needs cash once they're dead.

So you're saying that the State should be able to tell you how to direct your money. I love my kids and want to work for their futures, but you must not. Are you hoping that fate is kind to them instead? Why would you want your children to suffer when you can work hard for them, too?

That would be the solution. 10M wealth cap per individual, it would prevent the current state where a few thousand people control the lives of everyone. Americans are too stupid to see how they get restricted and cattled, but it would still make them a lot happier if they could work with wealth incentive and achieve something freely, instead of this lottery economy with tight guardrails to protect the interests of the very rich. You can screech all you want and larp as Luigis, but you simply do not have freedom when there are very rich people. Same is true for commie countries, the extremes cause mass suffering. See fentanyl, public schools. HR, Netflix, the Stasi, all that dysfunctional bullshit.

Because working middle-class families would pay the 100% tax and become instant paupers generation after generation, while billionaires with the resources available to them (legal and accounting teams) always find ways to evade the tax.

Why is the government entitled to after-tax money? They have a $30+ trillion deficit meanwhile the existence of an inheritance shows that the family is financially astute enough to manage their finances long-term. Why doesn't the government just stop spending more than it has? Then you don't need to tax, after-tax, inheritance.

You're thinking like a poorfag/taxcattle. For 2026, the federal lifetime gift and estate tax exemption is $15 million per individual ($30 million for married couples). Meaning... There is no gift tax on anything less than $15,000,000. (Or $30,000,000 if given by your rich parents.)

If i spend my life busting my ass and make a successful business or have a nice property, or a big savings account, i want that to go to my kids. All of that money has already been taxed countless times over as well.

You can make a case for many taxes, but the death tax, property taxes and income tax are fucking evil.
They NEVER affect the billionaires like you think it will and its always the moderately successful/wealthy to middle class trying to build wealth who get fucked over by these kinds of taxes.
They cant easily store their money in aassets because while wealthy, they still need a lot of that wealth to be liquid.

Also, property taxes and death taxes were a jewish idea. A farmer has 1000 acres and he dies and his kids inherit, but where that land was worth pennies per acres on 1950, now its worth millions because jew developers and financiers have bough up the shrrounding areas to make mcmansions and such.
So dad dies, and kids have to pay a massive death tax on the millions its supposedly worth, and even if they take out a mortgage, the property taxes are adjusted for the new valuation as well. And the family loses its lands and jews buy it up.

This is the exact thing going on in appalacia right now, familes have owned land there for centuries, and theyre having to sell or its being taken for taxes and californians and jews are buying the land and sticking mcmansions in top of the mountains.

How you cant see this and not be seething angry is beyond me.

That's the federal estate tax, state estate taxes are lower. There are proposals in some cities to incur an estate tax on net worths as low as $1 million, which would cover basically any home owner in a major American city.
Like any tax or fee, they always start out as 'only for rich people' they eventually expand to make everyone poorer, besides the eaters. And as you can see from this thread, the eaters aren't happy until they get to eat off of everyone's plate.

Nah should be zero. If they are not clinically retarded (a tall order for today) they are getting nothing for free. They are charged with forwarding their families estate to the next of kin themselves. The ideal situation being there is sufficient capital to subsist off dividends/produce of the estate while you sink more capital to grow the dividend.

People that think its "theirs" be wary they know not of natures ONLY tried and true way of getting wealthy- intergenerationally through the estate

The USSR didnt have inheritance tax for most of its history. It banned inheritance for 4 years, but retroactively revoked that law and had an uppermost bracked of 40% between 1926 and 1943, when the tax was abolished.
Communist China has never had any form of inheritance tax. Nor Cuba or North Korea.
Taxes are mostly a capitalist thing. Communist countries historically had very low taxes or none at all.

Well the question is, do you believe in meritocracy? And if you do, what are the conditions under which meritocracy can occur?

An ideal meritocracy would have the form of equal opportunity, with the goal of unequal outcomes. The equal opportunity at the start is vital for ensuring that any outsized outcomes indicate actual outsized talent and merit, rather than just being an indication of favorable treatment from the last generation.

To chase this ideal, you would want to reduce the confusing factors of favoritism as much as possible, and one of the most obvious forms is nepotism. Nepotism will do a great deal to confuse the discernment of merit; kids getting better training and education, getting more stable homes, getting better nutrition, getting more opportunities, etc, just for being born to the right person. For instance, how many people could've been Warren Buffet or even better, if only they'd also had a relative who could loan them hundreds of thousands to go play in the stock market?

A total inheritance tax wouldn't 100% prevent that, even if you took out the cheat of using trusts, since it would just incentivize rich families to offload all their wealth prior to death, but it would obviously help at least a bit to make that more difficult; and any money you did get would be filtered back out into the system to aid other people's kids.

What's wrong with that? Don't you believe in meritocracy?

no no you don't understand. The people who are getting shit are the people with the money.

Of course it's a fools errand because money is a claim on wealth. 20 years later you still have to stake that claim and there has to be something left WORTH CLAIMING (HA). If everyone has already fabricated claims on it(debt) then your claim becomes worthless! So taxing someone is just you claiming their claim! IT'S LITERAL FAGGOTRY ALL THE WAY DOWN.

Civilization was built on the premise that if you give a man a family to provide for, he'll generate an excess of resources to do just that, instead of lay around jerking off and doing the minimum to survive. If you tax a man at 100% on death, he won't bother earning extra during his life because he knows his kids won't get any of it anyways. Taxes need to be just high enough you can skim off the top without the person getting disincentivized to work. Remember, a good parasite never kills its host.

Dumb kids lose everything eventually. Smart ones get richer. So everything is natural selection and in group preference.
If you taxed all of inheritance, people would endow their reputation, their profession to their children. They would use crypto or hide their assets.

that just means your kids inherit your tax basis rather than a stepped-up basis.

Better than losing 100% to commies.

Agreed. My children would still benefit from my wealth by having a stable upbringing and favorable conditions for benefiting from education.
