NLA supports enactment of inheritance tax law

[jamesbbkk]

Indeed. Too many folks reaching for others' wallets. One may think he is getting govt to stick it to the super wealthy - envious much? - but it is just the above average schmoe and his family that gets creamed. The real rich can always deal with it though at great cost and waste of wealth which is waste to the whole society. Anyway the inheritence tax is theft, and it reduces generational mobility.

That is how it works.

If this is a real inheritance tax, that actually applies to everyone, then it is a good idea.

Yes, it's a bit bitter, ain't it.

In 2007 PM Gen. Surayut had to dropped property and inheritance taxes as it was suggested to him that such important issues should only be handled by an elected government.
