Rhetoric plays an important role in tax debate and therefore tax policy. If your side manages to gain traction in the public imagination with labels such as "death tax" or "dementia tax", you have gone a long way to normalising the labels and winning support.
Some truth underpins these particular labels -- an estate tax is triggered by a person's death, and the United Kingdom's abandoned levy for end-of-life care would have been particularly relevant for dementia sufferers.

You have two hours to move within 200 metres of the observers and fire your first blank round. You start about one kilometre out, give or take. You cannot be seen at all. If you are seen, you fail.
