Inheritance tax in FL?

Does anyone know if there is an inheritance tax in FL, and if so what the %?

I've heard in the past that there is as much as a 60% tax when your last parent dies, to claim their estate. This doesn't seem fair. If your dad's house if valued at $500,000, you would have to come up with $300,000 just to keep it?

I've also heard conflicting info that there was no death tax anymore, that they hd gotten rid of it.

Anyone know how this works, or is there any death tax at all in Florida?
