Yeah, and that noob on your other post can’t understand why they won’t come after home-equity after they cull 1031. Eight trillion? Hell they’ll probably try to get 401k too.

total wealth ... Divide by approx 300,000,000 Americans lowers the individual tax burden to only ~$24,000 per person Instead of the $25,000 someone listed earlier.

And you could only do it one time. Where does the money come from next year?

Its gotta be, right? Or else Biden will be 25th amendment processed out by the end of January if he won.

$8/yr is almost half of our entire GDP. Take out healthcare and you’re talking only about $2T left in the entire economy.

The capital flight would be something to behold though!

Joe Biden has no fricking clue what he wants. Hell he don’t even know where he is most the time.

This is why it would never happen. The Fed needs asset prices to inflate because according to their models it's drives consumption. Consumption drives tax receipts. Imagine thinking you could increase taxes this way? LOL

LOL I still think big law and big banking is in charge. There's too many agency and economic incentives for them to stop this economic model we have.

They're going to kill the welfare state they love so much if they drive baby boomers into retirement at a quicker rate than what they expect. Remember when they can't control the bond market they won't be about to issue debt perpetually at 0% rates. The radicals think it doesn't matter due to CB balance sheet expansion but there will be limits to that as well.

With the next stimulus for Covid we would have printed an additional 8 trillion dollars under Trump. So..... what’s the difference?

The estimates I have seen are $4 trillion over 10 years. That would still be the highest raise in American history.

It’s funny that Dems like to point out how growth has been higher under Dem presidents the last 40 years. They fail to mention both those Democrat presidents decreased taxes. It’s not the party, it’s the policy that’s the problem.

That's because anybody who thinks a political party has a greater effect on the economy is a moron. They're providing black and white answers to one of the most complicated systems humans study.
