The piece questions the feasibility of balancing budgets while maintaining government services.
A discussion criticizing death duties and state and federal taxes on estates. The piece argues these levies burden capital, discourage thrift, and force forced sales.

It notes proposed amendments to death duties and calls for fairer taxation.
