Inheritance Tax Truths in Ohio described as a tax on the right to inherit
The article argues Ohio’s inheritance tax is a progressive state measure aimed at taxing the fortunate who receive estates over 3,000 dollars. It notes the tax rate is 2 percent on the excess over 3,000 with rebates for prompt payment and that no widow or orphan pays until the 3,000 threshold is met. It compares Ohio to other states, defends the law against Democratic attacks, and cites Judge Worley’s example to illustrate how taxes apply. It asserts broad support among Republicans and notes limited time since enactment to gauge results.
