Guess what??  They bought back shares instead of bringing jobs.

This is not the type of tax I am discusing with him though. I am talking about taxing the rich after they've died, which is total BS.

Yea, estate tax aka death tax.  Always a thorny issue on Republican side.  How many people you think have a wealth over 5.34 million?  They must be suffering.
