Americans Overwhelmingly Reject Harris-Biden Unrealized Capital Gains Wealth Tax |

The 2025 Biden budget proposes to tax long-term capital gains and qualified dividends at ordinary income tax rates for taxable income above $1 million and tax unrealized capital gains at death above a $5 million exemption ($10 million for joint filers). If this tax proposal went through, investors would flee the stock market and potentially create a stock market crash effecting even pensions of middle class Americans.

Whoa— not good for most investors. This is why the Democratic Party has been dubbed “tax and spend” . No thank you!

Exactly what percent of the American public do you believe has an over 1 million dollar income or estates over 10M for married couples?

It doesn't matter. Even if ONE person is impacted it is a very bad idea.

Once the government starts taxing people on money they have not received we are going down a dark road. It may be only a few people now, but what will stop these progressive leaders from lowering the bar. When they need more money to fund their progressive projects, it will be lowered to those making $400,000.
It is a ludicrous idea and one that sane people should reject.

So you think the current tax structure with all off the changes from the 1980s works better from the average person than it used to?

What a red herring.
We are talking about the insane ideal of taxing unrealized gains. This has nothing to do with other changes to tax codes.

Why should any of us care about people who make 1 mil or have 10 mil in assets? We should be trying to reduce income inequality and pay for our government rather than crying about the wealthy. Can you explain why anyone (who has a normal income) should care about this?

They all certainly benefit exactly the same people, the ultra-wealthy.

[b]Jeez....this is why liberals should not be in charge of our government. Socialism is not the way. Big government is not the way. If you don't like your income, choose a career that pays more. Lord help us.[b]

Let's be honest for a change. Trickle down never worked. It just made the rich richer and eviscerated the middle class. The massive tax cuts for billionaires and corporations is just welfare for the rich and has even created the deficit as we know it.

Tax, tax, tax....that's all Democrats know how to do. Here's an idea, reduce the waste. End boondoggle "fact" finding missions, end grants to study the environmental impacts of lizard farts, end free healthcare for illegal aliens, reduce the size of the federal bureaucracy, etc. You could probably fire a third of the federal govt and it wouldn't make a different to most American taxpayers. Taxing unrealized capital gains is a very bad idea.

Another ignorant liberal who clearly doesn't do their own taxes or understand capitalism. The Trump tax cuts lowered taxes for most Americans even with the $10K SALT deduction cap. Corporations don't pay taxes. They may write the checks to the IRS but you the consumer pay their taxes for them in the cost of the goods and services that you choose to buy freely. Increasing corporate taxes will be passed right along to you further exacerbating inflation. If you don't like your income, change your career to one that pays more and/or is in demand. Hate billionaires all you want but most of them have become billionaires as entrepreneurs creating businesses that employ thousands of taxpaying Americans and provide products and services people choose to buy. We need more risk-taking entrepreneurs, they deserve the benefits if they are successful because most fail.

I feel sorry for people who only get their news from liberal sources. They probably only realized that Biden was in cognitive decline after watching the debate, despite the fact, that anyone paying attention knew this for the last 3 1/2 years.

I have over $10M and I care. I created a successful IT business with my own and borrowed funds that now employs over 163 people. My skilled employees enjoy excellent salaries, healthcare benefits that my company pays over half the premiums for, 401K matching so they can eventually retire with a good next egg, business class travel, and other benefits. My company provides a service that is in demand. I took the risk....I should reap the reward.

Most investors?

Do you think there are that many people with incomes over a million or estates over 10 million?

Wow. I'm so worried about you and your $10 million.

There is basically no way to tax unrealized gains. It is a non-starter. But the .1% wealth needs to be taxed more, both the income and the estate.

Here's the difference. Money in the "hands" of the wealthy benefits the economy in a healthy, positive, but responsible, way. If a wealthy person puts her money in a bank, the bank loans it it to somebody who can buy a home, start a business, etc., with market driven interest rates paid by the borrower to the bank, and from the bank to the depositor. If a rich person's money is invested in stocks and mutual funds, those companies use the money to grow, create jobs, and so forth. Everyone in the chain is accountable to use the money responsibly. But if money is taken by the government by way of taxes, there is no way to track the legitimate uses from the waste and the politically motivated uses.

Bolded is a flat out lie. Maybe it lowered your taxes, and the taxes of the 1% but certainly not "most Americans"
