Biden promises to impose a tax on "unrealized gains." If your land or stock account has increased in value in the last year you would pay taxes on the unrealized gain. You have not sold the property; you do not have the income. It isn’t "real." Yet you will be taxed as if you had made the sale and received the income.

lol at bitch bois and their pathetic crypto and brokerage account that they will have to pay taxes on.

To be fair,

We'll just tax them based on the highest amount that the asset in question (BTC, Stonk, etc) was worth in any given calendar year on the open market. Because ya know, you *could* have sold it at that price and *that* would have been a taxable event! It's a *fact*!

;)

PS: Don't worry, a government that will try to pull shit like this would NEVER just shamelessly make it "legal" for them to raid your 401(k) down the line in the name of "promoting racial equity" or "addressing legacies of systemic racism" or whatever. Haha. Keep contributing, goys! It's a great use of your money! ;)

There is mark-to-market accounting so I guess it would be possible to just set the value to the last trading day of the year (which would encourage year-end selloffs, lol).

How many people would leave the country because of this? I think a non-insignificant number. Just do pay taxes at a rate that would support a european style welfare state with none of the infrastructure, welfare, pensions, training, etc. that europeans get for the taxes they pay.

You understand that if the US loses all the really rich people that the amount of economic pain will be absolutely massive, right? If Elon Musk and everyone like him leave America then our economy will absolutely tank because a bunch of jobs will follow them.

Also, PE ghouls have a specific tax loophole that just needs to be closed.

do you understand that a scenario where the wealthy are permitted to leave the us tax free due to tax policy and expatriate all of their wealth is so ludicrous that only blithering retards believe it's possible? and that those that argue it to discourage taxing the wealthy are simply easily duped useful idiots carrying water for them?

this is without even touching the obvious roadblocks of (1) how tf could wealth held in land, property, american businesses, etc. ever leave the country to begin with? and (2) what countries would they be going to that has more lenient tax policy for the rich than the us?

but yeah, uh, i guess apple will just dissolve it's american corporations and reform in uruguay or something.

Before we proceed, do you have any background in corporate law at all? Simply put, these aren't "American businesses" they are large multinational corps. Tesla isn't truly "American" it is a company that has entities around the world. Many truly rich people don't hold their assets in personal bank accounts, their wealth is tied up in things like trusts, holding cos, etc. There are international tax implications with all of this but the question isn't whether they can leave "tax free" (they often will pay SOME tax) but it may be advantageous to take a one-time hit and leave with everything else. However, if wealthy people decide to do that then that will be a terrible result of the US.

As to other things, like land (land is inherently American, right?) that land can be either a) be held by a foreign corp, or b) simply sold with the proceeds transferred abroad.

"what countries would they be going to that has more lenient tax policy for the rich than the us?"

Singapore, UAE, Hong Kong, etc. There are advisors that do nothing but answer questions like these.

Yes, they will have to sell certain assets at a loss. If property is suddenly taxed far more the value will plummet whether they hold or sell. I realize that they're not putting an office building in a bag and moving it to Singapore. They'll sell an office here or exit a lease and get an office there.

A problem with the economy under the Third Reich was widespread corruption of public officials. While the intent to redistribute wealth amongst the people was noble, in practice the day to day job of handouts fell to corrupt officials who were all on the take. It was an incredibly corrupt regime where the party elites greased their fingers at every chance. There was widespread public theft as well. It didn't go according to Hitler's stated social goals in the original Nazi Party platform of the early 1920s. In many cases property was simply seized from private citizens by the government for personal gain. It must be noted that good intentions do not always go over well.

the German economy only grew because of the massive war effort which amount to an enormous society-wide jobs program. The economy also collapsed, too, due to the same war. Inflation was 200-1000%.

No question here the government spends money poorly. I wish they wouldn't spend it at all. Raising taxes on the rich is only cool if it means lowering them for the poor and middle class. I have never heard of a tax increase on the rich that lowers taxes for anyone else in my entire life. If you find one historical example I'd like to know. The "best" tax cut I've heard of is the flat tax which benefitted everyone, although it benefitted rich people more which makes people like you's heads explode.

even before rearmament germany's economy was soaring due to hitler's economic policy. all the way up to the anschluss they were flying high. yeah, the economy collapsed due to the war. that doesn't mean the domestic economic policy prior to the war was anything but a massive success.

we're deficit spending and have been for some time, so i don't think tax cuts are a great idea. and all i'm advocating for the wealthy being taxed as much as the middle class. lowering taxes there would be a nice bonus, but at the very least i think they should be getting taxed at the rate of their laborers.

lmao we spend freely regardless of revenue already! that's what a deficit is.

i don't see what's so controversial about insisting that billionaires at least pay what their workers pay. you just said you were in favor of a flat tax, and this is that in principle. spending is a different thing entirely.

also, this type of thinking is the type of thing that keeps elites entrenched.

"we should make sure the kikes get taxed at the same rate as the goys"

"but the kike run government will waste it!"

"regardless of how it's spent, i don't think we should bare all the taxes."

"until the kike government gets to deficit neutral spending i refuse to tax the kikes."

"but that will never happen so long as the kikes run everything, because their spending benefits them at our expense too. why should we let them take our money to spend on themselves? shouldn't they, at the very least, bare an equal burden?"

I'm sure that more government revenue of any kind will literally, literally solve things. It will, in all likelihood, make government spending go down.

In total dollars the rich typically pay more than wagies earn in a lifetime. I don't know what exact rate they pay. They pay whatever the rate is. If they have no income and only assets they don't pay any tax until they sell. And then they pay whatever the capital gains maximum is now which is I believe higher than it's ever been. Taxing unrealized gains is a pipe dream that will never happen.

bro i know you know that the cap gains rate is far, far lower than the rate for wages. so, even in your answer here i know you know that they'd be paying a far lower rate than workers. but i also know you know that through lending they avoid paying that, and often pay absolutely no taxes.

if you want to say a wealth tax will be hard to achieve that's fine but it's not what we're talking about. you're saying it shouldn't be attempted at all because it will just result in more spending. actually achieving it is a separate issue entirely, and i agree it's a pipe dream.

hypothetically, if a wealth tax in some form was proposed that would tax billionaires at the same rage as wagies, would you be for or against?

taxing wealth at the same level as umc wagecucks won't cause people to flee the country you dumbfuck. and they could be prevented from doing so anyway.

there is probably some level of wealth tax that will lead to some sort of brain drain. however, i don't think if the wealthy are forced to pay tax rate as me will do it. buffet and plenty of other billionaires agree with me. even trump once proposed a large wealth tax on the ultra wealthy.

it's stunning that libertarian cucks like you are fine with bezos and his progeny paying no tax until the end of time because "oh are blessed billionaires and their generational wealth are sacred!" and then fork over 30%+ of your income like a good lil' boy. can't think of anything more cucked than that, really.

Absolutely. If taxes increased dramatically and QOL declined (and yes, that's how it works) then you would absolutely see shifts to other places of the world.

"taxing wealth at the same level as umc wagecucks won't cause people to flee the country you dumbfuck"

Depends on what their alternatives are.

"there is probably some level of wealth tax that will lead to some sort of brain drain. however, i don't think if the wealthy are forced to pay tax rate as me will do it"

At least you recognize the first sentence. Now, stop and think about what that rate might be and what would influence that.

1) so we should do that instead of doing something that is obviously just going to end up another UMC tax. Especially when there are tons of obvious loopholes that everyone refuses to close even though there's zero chance of them being used against the UMC.

2) but a far more reasonable one for a bunch of reasons.

3) speaking as a UMC wagecuck, that's simultaneously true and not true. It is true in that the burden on the UMC is insane, but this doesn't inherently change that particularly since it is easy to modify this in a way that it primarily hurts us. It is untrue in that when you constantly spend too much you are left constantly hunting for new sources of tax revenue. Because the truly rich can leave and start over somewhere else and we generally can't, we end up getting hosed.

you can freely move across states, and if you are a remote wagecuck or can find similar paying work in the new state then it's trivial. an individual renouncing citizens and moving to a different country is not the same at all. and a company doing it is even harder.

anyway, i agree that the government should incentivize entrepreneurship and commerce. i think our current regime does the exact opposite regarding tax policy by allowing massive wealth accumulation to be completely untaxed and instead taxing wage earners only. not only is it unfair, it stifles competition and commerce by allowing de facto quasi monopolies. it's the same as trust busting and the gilded age.

As a company doing it is much easier than for individuals. Every large co is a multinational and they just transfer assets via intra-company agreements and/or using a variety of strategies. And if you're a high net worth individual (not any of us, but think the big names) then it is pretty easy. In all of these examples they have teams of people that do nothing but manage these.

yeah, i'm a part of those transactions sometimes. but that is all fantasy. the assets on paper move to different entities but the real world doesn't change. the law could be changed to prevent this transfer of wealth anyway.

If this happened you would quickly see a fire sale of such assets along with general concerns about investing in the US. You would see wealth absolutely flee, property values crash and the start of a massive recession. I don't think you have any concept of how bad that would get, but it would make ITE look like a little economic blip.

i don't believe it would. because in this fire sale situation what value would they be getting on their wealth? who would be buying? let's say they're able to get 50% in that scenario, which is wildly ambitious as you point out... at what level of wealth tax would it even be in their interest to do so?

0.5% on assets over $100m? 1%? 2%? obviously not, it doesn't even work out mathematically when you compound for growth if they stayed. there are a lot of other holes in this but it's easy to show this wouldn't happen at some wealth tax level.

again, i want to incentive growth and investment here. but i don't think giving the wealthy a free pass does that. and there is some level of taxation which will not cause a mass exodus, obviously.

Self employed people and business owners shouldn't pay any taxes. All taxes should come from wagecucks. If you take the easy way out and wagecuck, you pay for everything.

the proposal is only for people over $100m net worth. i'm fine with some form of wealth tax like this. although focusing on unrealized gains seems stupid. all that will do is incentivize wealthy people to store wealth in things that cannot be easily measured. and i don't see why a billionaire that has all of his money in something that doesn't fluctuate wildly should pay less than someone with $100m invested in the stock market. why not just do like a flat 1% a year on all wealth over $100m?

you couldn't do it before but i'll give you another opportunity: why do you consider a tax on income not to be theft but a tax on wealth theft? the only difference taxing things you received during a year versus taxing things you have. in both cases the government is taking wealth people own.

who said income taxes aren't theft? they are, but they basically affect everyone equally and, if taxes must occur, they should be through a flat tax systm

saying no taxes on anyone except the very wealthy, that's theft.

you support only taxing the very wealthy which is the same mindset as california shoplifting thieves. congrats.

you're right, i said it wrong. so upon death, three options would be: 1 current step up in basis, 2 no step up so upon heir's disposal of capital assets it triggers realization, or 3 unrealized gains taxed as it transfers to heir

because your assertions are stupid and it's annoying. no one is going to keep a house they aren't using because of cap gain taxes. there are already transfer fees, agent fees, etc. like, what, you get meemaws house and just keep it empty and continue to pay the property taxes because you don't want to pay long term cap gains?

0% up to 100k for married people btw, and 15% after that up to about 600k. so, if you inherited a house worth $300k, you there are a substantial number of people that would not sell it because of the $30k in taxes?

and if people went beyond clicking and actually searched for the proposal they'd see that it includes many things, including a tax on unrealized gains.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1w50t6QtLMNwbdTnuZ_tBxVXMgOoshFw1/view

it also includes a lot of the stuff others suggested were needed.

note: this will never happen and biden doesn't actually support it. but a lot of people are talking out of their ass without taking 2 seconds to find out what the plan actually contains.
