Nice moves.

If I earn income, then die, and the income goes to my estate, then the estate is taxed, that is not double taxation. It is not my earnings any more because I am dead. The double taxation argument incorrectly equates the estate with the deceased taxpayer who set up the estate. The analogy to wage earnings that is spent…

The keeper should be grateful. That should have counted as two goals.

Thank you for exposing the laziness of hack celebrity profiles, but you just referred to storing twinkies in a refrigerator. Let’s talk about that.

The general point is true, that there’s not such thing as magically laundered “already-been-taxed” money that you can use to avoid taxes in downstream transactions.

“The person who inherits the estate is not the one who pays the inheritance tax. It is the estate itself”

The party chair is about raising money, recruiting candidates who can win, and then winning elections. Their ideological credentials are basically irrelevant.

More likely, when someone is racist, we start to behave towards them like we do someone who farts in public a lot or is generally not fun to be around. We de-friend them. Not saying that’s the best solution, but that’s probably what happens the most.

What would be more effective is talking to these men’s wives and daughters, or whoever teaches the kids. That’s where long-term impacts come from, the inter-generational transfer of values.

Two words: Don’t overcommit.

Unidentified? Isn’t that usually what they are when they get away?

Most changes to the tax code have grandfather or phase-in provisions to give people time to adjust. In any case, one’s planning should always allow for some changes, like the exemption limit and the tax rate itself. You give multi-millionaires and their estate planners way too little credit. You should tell your…

(a) Only someone with zero estate planning/succession planning skills ends up with a forced sale.

It’s sad that you even have to type this out because it should be obvious, but the doublespeak propagandists who want to perpetuate income inequality made up this bogeyman of “double-taxation.”

Because you’re dead and dead people don’t have rights.

Once again, with feeling, it’s not double taxation. Each person is being taxed on their income. The income earner (or dividends-reaper or whatever) is being taxed on it. The survivor is being taxed on the income they get from their inheritance. Everyone is being taxed exactly once.

Here’s why. If a portion goes to the people, via the government, that is helping address inequality, which is the subject of this post.

I don’t get why if a privately held business changes hands upon the owner’s death that is any different from any other reason a business changes hands.

Seriously? That’s your comment, on the interviewer’s clothing? If this gets cross-advertised to Jezebel you are toast.

Based on these clips he doesn’t really need teammates. OKC could put six guys on the court and that would just be more defenders for Irving to humiliate. It’s like Marshawn Lynch breaking tackles by every single member of the 2010-11 Saints defense.
