one thing I would like to see is to re-legislate the ban on corporate stock buy-backs (illegal until the early 80s). Distributions to stockholders (which is what a buy back is) should be done by dividend
Wouldn’t lose a lot of sleep over it either way, but I don’t see the logic of allowing a corporation to issue more stock but not buy it back.

your income is taxed
you invest dollars that have been taxed in the market
the gains on those already taxed dollars are then taxed
you die, and those already taxed dollars and already taxed gains are both taxed again
at a certain point the taxes outweigh the gains on the investment and skew the risk/reward math away from equity investment.
BTW this (40+% capital gains tax) will never fly.
politics and especially tax politics are gamified to an extent relatively unnoticed by the genpop. Dems set the top range, Repubs set the bottom range, horse trading begins and we eventually arrive right back where we started. Anyone scared off by this can sell, I’ll be buying the MFing dips. Never lose sight of the fact that the wealthy make the rules and if there’s a rule being considered that will hurt them the most, it’s all for show
Cgrand knocking it out the park right here.

Inflation is often treated as a "capital gain." That's become like a government racket.

Total revenue to the federal government will go down because of reduced economic activity. It always does when they Jack up taxes like this. Whose dumber the voters or the Dems.
The inverse “Laffer Curve”.

I’m wrong all the way to the bank while you give awful advice and pretend to have any actual money.

Banning buybacks is not going to accomplish anything until we allow the market to find a clearing price when there's a deflationary collapse. In other words it will never happen. The entire corporate sector is being treated like a government utility at this point.

Will the Dems get rid of the SALT deduction cap? This will show their true colors
