The estate tax is a tax on the assets of the deceased. To the extent it prevents an heir from receiving the property, yes. But the estate (a fiction) is taxed. Not the individuals. State taxation and their terms complicate it as well. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inheritance_tax …pic.twitter.com/t2316G0O1c
