Tax on unrealized capital gains

I think he meant unrealized capital gains, which would be impossible and is probably unconstitutional.

However, the increase of the long term capital gains is concerning.

Everything is concerning when it comes to the Harris social engineering plan.

Youā€™re giving Cali WAY too much credit if you think he knows anything more about that link he posted. I doubt he even knows what ā€˜unrealizedā€™ gains are. (BTW, the 44.6% figure has nothing to do with realized vs. unrealizedā€¦. )

Gonna answer my question about the 44.6% figure, or just keep hijacking/spamming your own thread with more drivel??? šŸ˜‚
 
Like I said a long time ago. All cali4x4 can do is repost and copy garbage from randoms on the net. Bumper stickers are his backup plan.

The guy does no research and has never had an original thought.

Parrot...talking chit.

Sticking with Bidenomics​

Federal Tax capital gains tax would go up 44.6%. This is the highest rate since itā€™s creation in 1922.

Including State taxes the total is up to 50%.

Gains are not indexed for inflation.
Inflation is FJBā€™s biggest tax.

Just the facts Jack

Again Iā€™ll askā€¦. Did you read the article??? Read it closely and tell me what key fact the headline leaves out? (Partial news and headlines is equal to FAKE news!!!). Iā€™m going to go out on a limb and take a wild _ss guess that it will not affect you, nor 99,9% of the other ding-dongs on this site!! šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

BTW, nice job changing the title of this thread in a weak attempt to save face. But this has zero to do with unrealized gains! Dummy!! šŸ¤ŖšŸ˜‚
 
I owe you no synopsis of the article. That is why it is east pasted to my message.

Read it for yourself.

Another article is pasted below if you care to learn more.

Yes many on this site will pay capital gains taxes. Most if not all of us will not know how to avoid paying them.

The capital gains tax falls overwhelmingly on the middle classā€”specifically, on savers and entrepreneurs, the most thrifty and industrious members of the middle class.

I donā€™t pretend to be an English major. Independently wealthy or apart of the 1%ers.

I do know if it walks like a duck -and talks like a duck itā€™s a duck.

Kamala is not an economist. She talks the talk of a dingbat.

In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. From time to time we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people.

Capital Gains: A Tax on the Middle Class

Those who oppose reducing the capital gains tax argue that it would be a ā€œtax cut for the rich.ā€ However, the capital gains tax falls more on the middle-class.

Iā€™m gonna go out on a limb and bet that you were not the captain of your debate team. My god youā€™re dense.

You start your thread talking about Kamala taxing capital gains, then you post an article from 1995? Proving the capital gains taxes have been around through many previous presidentsā€¦..

Ya, no shite youā€™re not an English major, or any other major for that matter! šŸ˜‚

BTW, since youā€™re not a 1-percenter, then you donā€™t have to worry about the tax anyway, dummy! The 46% made up of the standard capital gains PLUS earned income that we all pay when we buy and sell securities for a profit (just like under Trump). If you make >$1MM per year total, the effective standard income tax rate you would pay on income OVER $1MM plus the standard cap gains tax would equal just over 46%. Do you get it now??? IT ONLY AFFECTS THE VERY RICH!

Still shaking my head that you dug up that article from 30 years agoā€¦. šŸ™„šŸ˜‚

I'm not 1% either, but this is just the usual drivel, clown show crap as always.


"Tax the rich". The real rich pay lobbyists for tax code exceptions. Meaning

1. There will be no actual transfer of money.

2. The tax will be extended lower to the groups who cannot afford lobbyists and lawyers.

And Cali is right. Kamala wouldn't know economics unless she was under an economists desk.

OK back to the basics

When taxes are cut, which includes Capitol Gains tax, it advances production, keeps people employed, and increases 401Kā€™s. Profits are recycled back into the market from the top down. Ever own a business?

Well thatā€™s great. You can afford to be a liberal democrat.

Being in the furniture business you probably sell a lot of goods to people moving to Arizona I assume.

Hard working middle class folks running from high tax states such as Kalifornia.

The US becoming a high tax nation forces companies overseas.

Taxes are bad. Overspending is even worse.

Itā€™s the economy stupid.

Let me know how the bake sale goes to pay for, streets, highways, military, first responders, clean water, etc etc etc.

Here's a news flash, it costs money to run a city, county, state, and nation.

Like I said, let me know how much money you make off a dozen cookies or the apple pie your old lady bakes.

Unbelievable.
 
Yes it takes money to run a country or even a small business.

The problem is Washington want to run the world. You will need to sell a lot more cookies at your Democrat bake sale.

Let me know how that goes cupcake šŸ§

I am definitely NOT a 'liberal democrat'. Been a registered Independent for almost 30 years now. I'm simple a fan of facts and context when I'm making a decision. Sound bites and headlines taken out of context are for simpletons that have a hard time with taking-in lots of info & data and applying critical thinking skills to sort it all out for a decision/position.

BTW, I didn't say that we 'sell' furniture. I said we distribute and ship it. Yes, we do business in AZ and many other states. So what? Also, WTF does people running from Cali due to high taxes have to do with anything at the federal level?? If you want to debate state taxes, then let's do it. (Again, an idiot hijacking his own thread.... Classic.)

"It's the economy stupid." Here's a hint, when you are going to use someone else's words, you should quote put quotes around it. Also, punctuation matters.... Just saying. :rolleyes: šŸ¤Ŗ
 
Harrisā€™s economic proposal would also raise the capital gains and dividends tax more than twice as high as Chinaā€™s, or 44.6 percent. China has a capital gains tax of 20 percent.

So you're saying it's bad to be different than China??? You freaking commie!! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Again, did you read the whole article?? Did you understand it? Particularly the part about taxes NOT going-up for those who earn less than $400K per year?? (Though that will definitely impact some of us, the vast majority will NOT see an impact....)
 
Just for the rich always expands & applies to more & more people. Via ratifying the 16th Amendment, the 1913 income tax was originally for the top 1% of earners. Over time the government applied it to more and more people growing the tax base.

Our founders fought a revolution in large part to being taxed without representation. Tea Party

I can't imagine capital & at least some, if not a great many businesses that meet that threshold moving to friendlier pastures. Also wouldn't this require many to sell assets just to pay for the unrealized gains?

They just want to stick it to the rich. Is that why they passed a bill to hire 87,000 new IRS agents while at the same time attempting to tax any PayPal, Venmo, Zelle transaction over $600?

Bess sells a tool box, scope, binoculars, a firearm, a waterbed, his prized Hush Flatty, a set of wheels in the MM classifieds, or anything over $600 that he already paid tax on... they want their cut.

The problem is spending, there is no wealth anywhere they don't want to transfer to their friends.

Dumb idea that will only hurt the economy & lead to higher inflation & higher prices.

As usual, wetmule posted wise words.

As for only looking at income tax, youā€™re right! Most do, just like Cali was so focused on it originally.

You are incorrect that i personally am focused only on income tax. We run a $250MM+ shipping/freight company (Wellā€¦. Mainly my wife runs itā€¦ LOL), so believe me when I say I am absolutely NOT only focused on personalIncome taxes. My intent for jumping into this thread was just to point out that as usual, Cali went with a sound bite about capitol gains taxes that he obviously has very little understanding of.

Go GOP!! šŸ˜‰
 
BuzzH is the only one here who would be hurt in the short term, but it does set a dangerous precedent.

The budget plan does indeed call for taxation of unrealized capital gains held by the countryā€™s uber-rich. Thatā€™s part of its proposal for a 25% minimum tax on the annual income of taxpayers with wealth of more than $100 million ā€” a wealth tax. If youā€™re a member of that cohort, lucky you. But at that level of affluence you donā€™t have grounds to complain about paying a minimum 25% of your annual income.

www.latimes.com

Column: No, folks, Harris isn't planning to tax your unrealized capital gains ā€” but a wealth tax is still a good idea

Conservatives fabricated a claim that Harris would tax everyone's unrealized capital gains, but she would do so for those with more than $100 million in wealth. Is that bad?

You make your own estimate. Didnā€™t you pay attention to trumps NY case?. And yes, you deduct capital losses.

Do you guys really think the ā€œrichā€ have a higher effective tax rate than you? Open your eyes.

Tax the uber rich to the hilt and leave the middle class alone.

That's great.

I bought this house when I was 20.

I'll get taxed on the gains for 40-50 years, and then hope it's a down year when it sells? Seems great.


The Uber rich don't pay taxes because there are politicians.

Want to tax the rich, term limits.
