Abolish the Inheritance tax.
Rejected

What the petition asks
The last thing any person wants to do is pay tax on inheritance gained from a dead relative, especially when that money has already been taxed during their life. It’s incredibly unfair to tax a family twice for their earnings and incredibly immoral to after their death. We need to abolish the tax.
