    Serious policy question: why does the Republican antipathy for double taxation apply to estates and dividends but not state and local taxes?

        You know the answer. And there is no possible reply that can pass the "serious policy" sniff test

        Estate taxes are not double taxation. They tax the recipient, not the donor. This is like saying salaries paid to employees are double

        And you know how you know an estate tax is not a double tax? It has a separate tax id number from the deceased.

        B/C GOP views SALT as legitimizing the income tax system & big gov't. They intend to do away with most fed gov't support.

        Feds have no control over how states decide to tax. Fairness would be for people in CA to pay same federal taxes as people in KS.
