Did I say mandatory? I meant optional! You’re “free” to die in a cardboard box under a freeway as a market capitalist scarecrow warning to the other ants so they keep showing up to make us more!

Oh brother. Talking about a high horse.
So if you tax unrealized gains, the rich will still be rich but everyone else will simply stop investing. They will have no option but to only earn money from the rich guy. Oh but we’ll all have collectives because everyone who works wants to be an owner. And the best way to make any decision is to have a whole bunch of people provide input.
Look I’m all for eliminating the unfair rules that allow people to become billionaires. This rule is not one of them. And I’m sorry, but there are millions of people in the US with 401k retirement plans and they all have unrealized gains. They would all be effected. So don’t pretend this is ONLY a rich person thing. This isn’t a tax on the rich. It’s a tax on trying to become rich.
High horse? How? By explaining basic issues with capitalism that anyone who has paid attention to anything in the last 100+ years has recognized?
What an easy way to completely disregard an argument that makes you uncomfortable. I’ll have to remember that one.
