Death and taxes may be inevitable, but they shouldn't be related

J.C. Watts, a former American politician and athlete, once famously said, "Death and taxes may be inevitable, but they shouldn't be related." This statement speaks to the common understanding that death and taxes are two certainties in life, but it also suggests that the relationship between the two should not be as intertwined as it often is.
