Mike Johnson actually said...

This nation was founded on the principles that if you work hard and you put your sweat equity into something...

The estate tax was originally instituted to ensure that the very wealthiest families... could contribute back to that system.

Let's not throw the entire baby out with the bath water and say we are going to eliminate the estate tax, all together.

Sequestration assumes that the Nation's debt is out of control, and so, therefore, we must cut spending.
