You should've included the part where this law only applies to households worth $100+ million for transparency.

Just stop allowing people to leverage debt with investments.

This will be no different.
Anyone supporting stuff like this is too stupid to realize that.

This would drastically alter our economic system and cause a lot of initial pain, but probably a wiser long-term solution than trying to fine tune with thousands of pages of regulations and exceptions.

this is true, but the alternative is also fricking us. we get fricked from both sides no matter what, this isn't an either/or scenario.
Politicians all lie to us, we shouldn't lie to each other. the bill being proposed only applies to folks worth $100million+ (for now at least)

Pocahontas has been trying for close to 10 years to push this through. Except she wants every unrealized gain no matter how much, taxed. If you make a dollar, she wants 46% of it.

We tried telling you that Democrats would come after you 401Ks. This is how they want to do it. Taxing 401Ks every time they go up, even though you don't pull anything out.

The threat of this passing has already tanked the frick out of the market. Maybe they know something

what's next, allowing mortgage companies to add " unrealized gains" to your principle?
Wat? That is nonsensical. The mortgage contract is separate from the purchase of the property.
They are linked but are separate contracts. Your mortgage contract spells out the princple balance, interest rate, due date of payments, penalties, etc.
The lender can't just tack on new principle to the contract without your consent.

The URGL tax discussion is retarded but your fearmongering here is even more unhinged.

This. We already have clear unequivocal evidence that this will happen with the Alternative Minimum Tax. When enacted in 1969, the public was assured that it would only affect 155 - that's right, one hundred and fifty five - households in the US.
By 2010, it was hitting almost 35 MILLION US households. Trump's tax cuts put it partially back into it's hole, dropping the affected returns down to 0.1% of all US returns, but it still pulls in >$5B, and hits taxpayers making as little as $200k. Trump's reforms significantly reduced the number of payers under $500k AGI, and also reduced a good number of payers under $1M AGI. These are the same reforms that Kambala wants to overturn.
So yeah, you pollyanna DA's, just go ahead and believe with all your widdle hearts that this tax will only apply to billionaires.

You could have said " democrats want to tax citizens more than they already do" and accomplish the same thing for this board.

Any proposal for taxing unrealized gains will result in an upward basis adjustment. So you would have a huge loss at sale to offset other gains.
The 3K net loss rule would need some work.

It’s already an option under trader rules.
But it should not be mandatory.
