So once I earn money, it should never be taxed again?
When I pay for a product, it should not be taxed?
When the person who I bought it from uses to pay his employee, it should not be taxed?
We were talking about taxing upon death money saved, I thought, not spending it while alive.
I personally do not think sales taxes are particularly “fair”, they have a bigger negative effect on poor folks than those with money. But they exist, and so we pay when we buy something.
And if I leave my money to my kid, she will pay sales tax if she buys something with it. My whole issue is that once I have paid INCOME tax on the money I’ve earned and saved, then no, she should not have to pay INCOME tax again.
