Frank,

You used the term "inheritance tax" without explaining you meant a state scheme. In Washington, the state scheme is still called "estate tax." Not all state schemes are titled "inheritance tax." It was a miscommunication in terms and lack of full explanation on your part, not a lack of knowledge on the part of anyone who replied to you.

To be honest, I am a bit shocked and dismayed by your posts in this thread given that you are a federal judge. And now name calling? In any event, as I and several other people have pointed out, your posts in this thread are dangerously close to advocating tax evasion. I am just disappointed to read that advice on a public forum coming from a federal judge, that's all.
