We Need More Tax Cuts for the Rich

Leona Helmsley's dog is dead. Trouble, aged 12, did not leave a will.

Trouble’s $2 million inheritance would cover yearly costs of $100,000 for a full-time security guard — the dog had received death threats — $1,200 for food and $8,000 for grooming. Mr. Lekic was also paid $60,000 for being the dog’s guardian.
