| | In their insatiable hunger for revenue, governments contrive schemes to tax the same thing more than once, notably stock dividends, which are first included in taxable corporate income and then second as personal income of the individual shareholders. | | | It is tax on capital, as opposed to income, on the total value of non-charitable property bequests starting with the very first dollar, unlike the federal tax which exempts estates of less than $1 million. | | | Aside from issues of collecting revenue, the philosophical and historical basis for a tax on inherited capital and assets is purportedly to reduce concentrations of wealth in succeeding generations so as to achieve the objective of a more egalitarian society. |
