The Estate Tax, also known as the "Death Tax" is a greatly debated issue and many people lean towards the side that want to rid the nation of this tax. However, this tax may be less of a nuisance if we set an Estate Tax Limit. It is currently set at the original limit, which was set at the turn of the 19th century and is extremly outdated. The limit at this time was a set for a higher class. Through the years the dollar has changed enough that the standard of living at the estate tax limit's current level is unmatched to the orginal limit. Something must be done. Raise the Estate Tax limit.
