This hate-filled statement is unjustified. This was an act of cultural violence, not one of direct military importance, that was an onus to signing peace with an enemy that was already beaten. Second, the U.S. government was infinitely more interested in starting the arms race with the Soviets than in roasting innocent Japanese citizens. Japan provided the perfect opportunity for showing the USSR that we had achieved full-fledged atomic power, and thus we played the opening gambit of the Cold War. I think he should veto it.
Some people look at the estate tax as a confiscation of property by government.
I don't look at it that way. Only the richest 2 percent of the families in America will benefit from repeal of this tax. The rich Americans this tax repeal would benefit don't need the money. Sales taxes on auto sales between private individuals. Even though it seems the government wastes a lot of money and could probably do better job of managing it, I still believe that at least some of the money would find its way to people who really need it.
