Max Baucus Propping Up Wal Mart

Digby quotes Krugman

[The campaign for estate tax repeal has largely been financed by just 18 powerful business dynasties, including the family that owns Wal-Mart.

You may have heard tales of family farms and small businesses broken up to pay taxes, but those stories are pure propaganda without any basis in fact. In particular, advocates of estate tax repeal have never been able to provide a single real example of a family farm sold to pay estate taxes.]

Let me tell you there is nothing "centrist" about this, it is a tax hike on the rest of us.
