I suspect like other factual logical issues....there will be significant silence.

She also thinks the $5.45 million exemption threshold is too high. She would cut it materially so that more people have to pay estate tax, dropping the exemption amount from $5.45 million to $3.5 million. However, according to the Tax Policy Center, only approximately 10,800 estate tax returns will be filed for deaths in 2015. Of those, less than half (about 5,300) will be taxable. In that sense, the dollars at stake are arguably not too significant.

Proponents of the estate tax argue that it helps to stop wealthy people from getting even wealthier, generation after generation. They see the estate tax as helping to curtail dynasties, keeping them from growing unchecked. Trump, on the other hand, favors getting rid of the state tax. And being a billionaire, would benefit enormously from an estate tax repeal.
Not too significant? Maybe not to you.

Just curious, would Hillary's new tax proposal apply to YOU?

This is all BS. Once a person acquires and estate it should be theirs. You bet your a$$ it's not going to affect any politician especially the clintons, Kerry's, Obama's, Nancy lets pass it to see what's in it. It will also not affect trump, gates, tax cheat Buffett, or any other billionaire. That's why we have lawyer's, only the poor stooge voter that can't afford lawyers get the Shyt taxed out of them.

Another thing you NEVER heard democrat talk about lowering taxes or paying down the debt. They can NEVER get enough money to spend for votes.

The fact is we can no longer support the takers as the givers have run out of money. Government programs to buy votes has made this a socialist state.

You realize that if they don't get the taxes from the millionaires they get it from the people that pay taxes. That's you and me.

I don't feel sorry for billionaires. Call me deplorable.

big typo error---

You realize that if they don't get the taxes from the Billionaires [not millionaires] they get it from the people that pay taxes. [Most of us down here are millionaires.] That's you and me.

No, I don't call you "deplorable." I call what you said "stupid." Billionaires may not pay at the same percentage in their net tax payment after breaks, but they do pay more taxes than you.

I am always amused at the "tax rate" discussion about millionaires and billionaires.

The tax rate is not an apple and an apple.

Most taxpayers pay taxes on wages.

Millionaires and billionaires do not make wages. It is all about asset management and investments....that simply are not at the same "rate".

Instead of talking about "rates", it would be more useful to be talking about amounts of $$$$$ paid in taxes per the given rates.

Most of us know the result of such an exercise.....right.

But the media and political abuse and mis-information talking about tax rates plays better to the uninformed.

The uninformed do not know they are uninformed....that is the pity of what is happening in our society today.

What, have you been living under a rock? A Democratic president, Bill Clinton was the one who balanced the budget and actually created a budget surplus. Of course Bush came in and wrecked the economy with that stupid war.

Bill Clinto was about as responsible for balancing the budget with a surplus and Bush was responsible for wrecking the economy.

Those things would have happened if Howdy Doody was in office or not!!!

First off, it was congress that "balanced" the budget.

Second, Clinton NEVER had a surplus. Anyone can put a budget on a piece of paper on his way out the door, not knowing what next year is going to cost. At any rate, NO ONE has had a surplus which allowed them to pay down on the national debt since Eisenhower. ( a Republican ).

As for a Democrat president lowing taxes, I believe Kennedy might have been responsible for some tax breaks. I would have to look it up to be sure.

As much as I hate to say it, in my opinion Bush hosed up by lowering the tax rates to the extent that half the country gets out of paying their equal share (the lower 47%). All that did was cause 47% Democrat voters. The tax rates were supposed to be temporary but Obama wanted to keep all but the wealthy tax breaks.
