I agree they should be paying more in taxes. Okay. I'm not against that idea. I just, how you structure your tax system is important to me. In a perfect world, I wouldn't think anyone should pay any tax, but the fact is we do need a functioning government, and we've committed to a lot of things that people are counting on, and we need money.

I don't agree with taxing unrealized gains. There are credible economists who think differently. This is a conversation we should have, but like, I think it's just impractical. And the ability to collect a tax you levy is actually very important and it's important consideration. First of all, it's very hard to tax wealth because it's really hard to put a value on wealth.
