Joshua Dwyer

Death and taxes seem to have a lot in common. Benjamin Franklin said they were the only certain things in this life and except for a few notable examples in history, both are usually permanent.

In a welcomed change from its usual practice of creating new taxes, Congress is currently considering repealing two. If Congress can agree to permanently abolish both the telephone excise tax and the estate tax without compromise, citizens should applaud its efforts and encourage their representatives to turn it a habit.
