I continue to be bemused by some arguments put forward by those who argue against Inheritance Tax.

Just how to define a tax haven has been a problem for some of the best tax minds. The OECD and IMF have tried, and got confused, especially when trying to contrast them with what an Offshore Finance Centre might be.
