The great lie of a death tax. The Domesday book showed real death taxes -- just watched a Lucy Worsley investigates taht covered the black death in England. Every time the oldest male serf died, the family had to pay a death tax of a horse, sheep, cow, etc. That was literally a death tax to still be basically a slave.

These idiots pander to idiots
