        Hey Darin, mind putting out the amount of families nationwide that are affected by this? Or would that reveal that you're distorting info?

        Furthermore, that 0.2% is across the United States. How many people pay the estate tax in the 18th? I would bargain that it's much less

        You'd be betting wrong. Find the number. Lots of farmers in the 18th whose children have to sell grandpas farm to pay the tax.

        I've lived in rural 18th my whole life and know many farmers. None of whom have $5.43 million in wealth, or 11 million for couples. Cmon

        Can you please stop spreading propaganda? This tax is inconsequential to your constituents. Why don't you worry about things that affect us?

        Well, it's not a death tax, and it only affects the super wealthy. So, another tax break for your mega donors. #NotMyRep #TryAgain #MoreLies

        Given the plethora of exceptions offered for the estate tax, most estates face a tax significantly lower than 40%, but keep misleading us.

        Oddly, you talk about small farms and businesses but it's really the wealthy offspring you're trying to save money for. #sad
