i'm just saying, if i have to live with some taxes, then punishing a man for dying is a lot easier for me to accept than punishing a man for working. mostly because the dude is already dead.

and i suppose we can say that we're really taking money from the kids, not the dead dude, and this is certainly true. but here again, if I have to make a choice between one or the other, i much more comfortable taking money from a guy for choosing his parents well than for working.
