Socialism is just a word. If that's what you want to call it go ahead. It doesn't hurt anyone.I really can't understand how you can possibly owe the State (or "society" if you prefer that word -- likening one to the other defines socialism though) once you die, after a lifetime of being cheated by them at every turn. I stand for a single income tax, no bracketing, with deductions for single-income families and freelance/self-employed. Maybe also a sales tax, but not as high as the current one. The whole system is way too convoluted as it is.
Being "cheated at every turn" implies that the system as it stands is unfair. I agree with this. It is important to remember that in the context of my argument for an estate tax it would be part of an overhaul of the entire tax system not just a stand alone addition to the code.
Deductions for single-income and self employed are brackets as you define it no?
