Inheritance tax is Marxist by Michael Perelman 12 June 2002 22:19 UTC Why are the Repugs so brilliant in framing issues? The Death Tax wording is a stroke of genius.
^^^^^^^ CB: I'm a vulgar materialist on this. The Repugs aren't more clever at developing slogans than we are. They just have several orders of magnitude more $$$, control of the mass media, etc., to saturate the mass consciousness with the lies they come up with. We could ahve a left poet or lyricist make a catchy version of " The rich don't work for most of the money they have." There could even be a song, movie or tv show with that as its title, but that won't happen.
