Never got to this, but most inheritence (might be wrong syntax there, idk whatever) is nontaxable on the federal level with the exception of I think 401ks and the like I'm fairly certain. Since I personally would count inheritence as "income", I think an estate tax is fair.
On personal level, I find this distasteful because it basically makes money and therefore your labor the governments and not yours to do with as you see fit, but within the current framework having an estate tax is logically consistent and that's all I'm looking for at this point.
