Sorry you’re right I said income. I meant capital gains.

Well it would be an easy loophole to avoid paying capital gains. Unfortunately for me (and everyone else working) there is no such loophole for the income tax we pay. I don’t want people paying more taxes. In fact I’d prefer the opposite. I just want the money taxed evenly across everyone. So I’m not paying an increased % of the tax myself because others are skipping out.




Inheritance isn't income. That money has already been taxed as income. You are a moron plain and simple.

Yeah I agree with this. It’s specifically for capital gains. I’ll concede the point for inheritance tax specifically. Still holding on the capital gains as it has not been taxed yet.

The capital gains are untaxed until they are realized. Estate tax forces a realization so that high dollar capital gains don’t go untaxed indefinitely.

Why would they be taxed if they aren't realized? Until then, there is no gain, so there is nothing to tax.

Does it matter? Why would they be taxed if the gains are never realized?

They won't go untaxed indefinitely. They'll be taxed when the gains are realized.

The only way it can go on indefinitely is if they are not realized. If they are not realized then no benefit was directly derived from said funds.
