Whatever other arguments are being made for or against an estate tax, I'll just say if you goal is to move assets from the boomers' generation to their children's generation, putting a tax on transfers from the boomers' generation to their children's generation seems a very very weird way of doing it.

- danielweber 14y agoThe money won't be collected until after it has been paid out to the baby boomers and then waiting for them to die. And hoping they don't distribute it, which they will obviously do if high estate taxes come into play. This is just nonsense. Argue for an estate tax if you want, but don't say it's to compensate for the low taxes the boomers got.
