| Big Ben - 1/11/2021 22:38 Why should death be a tax trigger? Seems a little arbitrary, some people live a lot longer than others. Maybe taxes should be due every decade. Maybe they should be due every year. Oh wait, they already are. So why are we taxing again at death?
I'm not asking if death should trigger a tax.
I'm asking why should the land get "stepped up basis" after death but not before?
