Agreed there are fundamental differences

Well then don’t act like they’re the same thing.

Do you honestly think people should have to pay more taxes if caught in the situation I presented?

I never argued for or against it.

But your argument was they were the same so you asked why they’re treated differently.

So I explained how they aren’t the same, Then you agreed. So that’s why they’re treated differently. Whether you agree with it or not.

The US tax system constantly encourages people to do what the govt wants and discourage people from doing what they don’t want you to do.

The government still got revenue from imy play just like they would with stocks.

The govt wouldnt get any revenue from your proposed system. That’s your whole argument….

The government got revenue from my paycheck. I used remaining money to gamble. I won x but then lost x so no one gained or lost anything but the government still gets more revenue from me now. Makes zero sense.
