Way to trigger a MASSIVE sell off.
And afterwards there won't be anyone selling anything that would trigger the new tax rate.

The effect wil be a one-time boost in capital gain taxes followed by a long period of ZERO large capital gains transactions.

The Law of Unintended Consequences will be invoked and the federal government will collect less, not more, in taxes.
