VIDEO: BARNEY FRANK JUSTIFIES DEATH TAX BY SAYING RECIPIENTS DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO DESERVE IT

I guess one COULD make the argument that the heirs of an estate didn't do anything to deserve receipt of that estate but for a member of a completely wasteful and irresponsible government to use that as justification for why that wasteful and irresponsible government DOES deserve more of it is beyond pathetic irony. To underscore the point, Barney says the heirs of an estate 'haven't worked hard.' How does he know that? The implication Barney makes is that he DOES work hard. I guess you can make that case too if you consider being front and center of the housing crisis hard work.

Adding to that pathetic irony is that the heir of the estate would probably produce more tax revenue for the wasteful and irresponsible government if he / she was allowed to keep it.

The annoying sound of Barney's voice in this video is almost matched by the visual of his blatant need for a pair of collar stays.
