Trantor has some reclaimed areas where people are farming. But they have an expensive secret society that's reshaping the future. They'll do anything they can to get more money. Some of that money comes from death taxes. You pay taxes when you earn it and they tax you again on the money when you leave it to others.

On the contrary they don't tax "you" at all when you die cause your dead. It becomes income to your heirs (which they did nothing to actually earn) and is therefore taxed as income. It is intended to limit dynastic wealth and so the first $5 million dollars now (2011) is excluded. So, it doesn't apply to working people at all mostly just the top 1%, you know like the Waltons, Carnegies, Rothchilds, etc.
So now, why should we feel sorry for them having to pay some taxes on money they got without doing anything to earn?
And to correct you it is not "your" money it was created "Of the people, By the people, For the people". The money belongs to the game that was created on July 4th 1776, and if you want to play you have to pay.
If you don't want to pay taxes, don't play the game.
Somalia doesn't have taxes and you get to have an AK47 and all the ammo you can carry.
