I'm going to try to read Henry George's "Progress and Poverty" on the flight to Europe and back.
I think he's probably right that there should be exactly one tax: a tax on land value.
You cannot tax unrealized gains as they could evaporate tomorrow. This is not only unconstitutional, it's as evil as some of the worst money and land grabbing by the worst commie regimes. The fact that billionaires often live off their gains has nothing to do with it. The right thing to do would be to get rid of bail-outs, which would self correct every issue associated with this topic. If you tax unrealized gains the billionaires would get hit, but the middle and upper middle and upper class would get squashed, which then would prompt the billionaires to buy their scraps for pennies on the dollar, making billionaires even richer and creating tons of additional government dependents. In fact even taxing realized gains right away while delaying realized losses to the max of 3k/year as it has been practiced forever is already unconstitutional commie bullshit. Abolish the irs NOW
Yellen is of course a dimwit loser, and Biden’s senile.
Do you realize how fucked up the concept of taxing unrealized gains is?
