I agree too
My wife received an inheritance from her parents' estate. That was when we learned about the stepped up tax basis. Our children, I assume, could have a similar benefit, although we plan to bequeath a good fraction of our estate to charities Logically, the stepped-up basis is just a gift to those with wealth, and a benefit that most will never receive. It's not not a fair feature of our tax structure IMO.
