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.


Wonder what percentage of the population has taxable income above $1 million. Like, why would this be "wildly unpopular" when it doesn't affect 99% of the population?


Were you paying attention to what happened with the stock market a week ago? That should be a warning about the folly of taxing unrealized capital gains.


Calling unrealized capital gains AT DEATH “unrealized” is a huge misnomer.

Money is taxed when it changes hands.

When you die, the money is going to change hands.

This is actually one of the fairest and most painless ways to generate tax income.


This plan is NOT just on death. It is overall. And, it is a ludicrous idea.

The idea of taxing unrealized capital gains—increases in the value of an asset like property or stocks that haven’t been sold yet—is not only unprecedented but fundamentally flawed.

Imagine purchasing shares in a company for $1 million, and next year, those shares appreciate to $1.5 million. Under Biden’s plan, you would owe taxes on this $500,000 gain, despite not having sold the shares or realized any actual profit.

Now imagine that the stock’s value drops back to $1 million the following year. You’ve already paid 25% on a gain that existed only on paper, and now you’re also left shouldering a financial burden without any actual economic benefit.

You can see how this policy might not go over well with the investment community. As influential entrepreneur Anthony Pompliano tweeted last week, “If they want to collect unrealized gains, we’re going to need refunds on unrealized losses.”

Scott Melker, host of the popular Wolf of All Streets podcast, commented that wealthy investors would simply employ a special strategy to minimize the impact of this additional tax burden. Rich people, he says, “will just take more loans against their portfolios,” knowing that the interest they pay on those loans can often be deducted.

This policy could dramatically distort investment behavior, especially when it comes to small caps, startups and early-stage companies. These businesses are often the engines of growth and innovation within the economy, but they rely on investments from those willing to take risks for the promise of future returns.

Knowing that their unrealized gains will be taxed, investors would be less inclined to invest in growth-oriented businesses, which tend to see greater swings in valuation year-over-year than larger, more established companies.

The consequence? A slower rate of innovation and a reduced growth in productivity.

Outrage at Kamala Harris as pedophile who brutally raped and murdered eight-year-old neighbor is set to go free thanks to woke California juvenile justice law VP authored

A violent pedophile who brutally raped and murdered his eight-year-old neighbor could be released from jail this fall due to a 2016 justice reform authored by Kamala Harris during her tenure as California’s Attorney General.

Adrian Jerry ‘AJ’ Gonzalez, 24, was just 15 when he lured Madyson Middleton into his mother’s apartment with promises of ice cream before strangling, stabbing and raping her.

The brutal killer then wrapped her body in plastic bags and threw it in a dumpster outside the Santa Cruz apartment complex where they both lived.

Now, Gonzalez is set for release when he turns 25 – a rule that applies to all offenders convicted in juvenile court in California.

The killer has benefited from California’s 2016 Public Safety and Rehabilitation Act, also known as Proposition 57, which changed the rules on juvenile offenders and meant those who committed crimes before they turned 17 can only be moved to an adult court following a full hearing.

Criminals convicted in juvenile court are automatically eligible for parole when they turn 25 – meaning Gonzalez will have served just three years if he is released in stark contrast to the two life terms he would have faced in adult court.

You want children tried as adults before there is a hearing on what evidence exists?


If you are murdered or brutally raped by a person 13 or older, are you less dead or less harmed because the perpetrator is a teen?


Do you think there is no division to be made between children and adults committing crimes, and if so, having a judge adjudicate exceptions?

What is wrong with you?


Weirdos thinking children are the same as adults. Guess that's why they think 14 year olds should be forced to give birth.

And why they have embraced child labor again. Who cares if a few kids lose limbs or fall into vats, there’s money to be made for shareholders!

I don’t think anyone should listen to or engage with the same people who think that Donald Trump’s trial was a… what did they call it? A “kangaroo court”? A “political attack”? They’re also the same people who argue that Trump isn’t a convicted felon because he hasn’t been sentenced. They’re a “rules for thee and not for me” group.


The dems support open borders where cartels use child labor for child drug trafficking and even child sex trafficking. The Dems have no problem with this


This is an absolute lie. I am concerned about your mental health and ability to process truths.


NP.

Um, I am more concerned about YOUR mental health, PP.

And, do you know PP, or are you psychic or something?

This administration’s actions demonstrate they support open borders where cartels use child labor for child drug trafficking and even child sex trafficking. The Harris/biden administration has no problem with this, or they would have done something to stop it.

They did nothing.

How many people have taxable income above 1 million dollars per year?

Unrealized capital gains at death, is basically an estate tax. Passing on $10 million to your kids is plenty, and anything over that is taxed but not confiscated. Is there a reason Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg's progeny for the next 500 years should be set for life?
