There is a 100% chance this happens. Just look at the origins of the income tax. There were 2 brackets, only for top earners at a tax rate of 1 or 3%.

How'd that work out?

Just here to point out that if you taxed all the assets, not income, of American billionaires at 100% you could not fund the 5 trillion dollar spending bill proposed.
Couldn't even balance the current budget

Yes, I am aware. I do tax work for a living lmao.

If you cannot see that your analogy to increase in the value of your house is a bad one, I cannot help you.

Their end goal is to tax all wealth and beat us into submission. I for one couldn’t afford a 3% tax on my net worth as it was created through inheritance and not my paycheck.

Poor analogy baw. Your personal residence is not taxed up to $250K/$500K.

Homeowners get a bill for this every year and we call it property taxes.

The URGL tax plan is hot garbage and should not pass but your analogy here is just as bad.


For now. Just wait until your home is viewed as an investment. Best hope it doesn't appreciate. CaUsE yOu MaDe InCoMe!

Taxy taxy tax tax.

Do these clowns wake up, roll out of bed, grab a pen and paper and say,

"How can I kill businesses and jobs in the United States today?"

Then start writing down ideas,

Lets see.. I feel like Democrats notebook would look something like

1) Pay people not to work!
2) Raise minimum wage to 20/hr
3) Tax the rich
4) Tax inheritance
5) Tax unrealized capital gains
6) Print an arse ton of money
7) Raise inflation and pay more people to stay home and print more money
8) Print more money
9) Pay for day care and pay people not to work
10) More environmental regulations
11) Stop building infrastructure like pipelines and build back better by printing more money
12) Tout union jobs, but kill all projects, industry, and manufacturing that may hire union labor
13) Take money from job makers and workers and give it to social justice and environmental justice programs that get in the way of businesses
15) OH, I got a great one, Require Vaccines to Work!
16) OH OH, Require Masks to go out in public!!
17) Bitch about white people
18) Tear down statues
19) Fund viruses that kill your work force
20) Close small businesses because WOOOoooOOOooooO FLu
21) Forget where the Trump put the magic wand

This person is retarded then. A personal home is a liability and expense NOT an investment.

I have experienced that first hand this year as a homeowner.

You do not get wealthy owning your primary residence; you merely recover some of your expenses when you sell.

I have tracked every penny I have spent on the house since I have owned it.

It's not me you need to lecture. Talk to the Brandon administration. It'll be their brain child.

Do we get a tax credit for unrealized losses?

This has been effectively closed for many married folks with the increased standard deduction via the Trump tax cuts but I agree with your frustrations.

Or get rid of 1031 exchanges.

Or expand the policy to include assets for those who aren't billionaires.

All kinds of new and exciting ways to destroy the American economy.

And no more step up in basis at date of death are definitely on the radar.

My biggest issue with all these changes is they are just rooted in pure envy and greed.

That's a bad road to go down. The tax code should be used to fund legitimate government expenditures not weaponized.

Dangerous road Brandon is heading down here because this can all be flipped with the next R administration.

Anyone who thinks Joe is paying for his massive spending with rich folks' money is a drooling idiot.

MONEY SUPPLY SURGE

We have officially surrendered to THIRD WORLD fiscal policy proscriptions to solve the economic problems of the greatest economic power that mankind has ever known.

Let it sink in, because we're about to slip below the waves.
