Regarding Sid Schwab’s column, “How a tax on the rich is sold as tax on death”: Why tax the rich? Because that is where the money is! Ninety percent of the wealth in the U.S. is owned by 10 percent of its citizens. No one else has the resources to support the needs of this country. I want to thank Sid for his always thoughtful comments.
