Subject: paying actual tax on unrealized gain. What do people with wealth do?”
Senator Kennedy (LA) :
“Should an American pay tax on unrealized gain (on property that is expected to increase in value but not yet sold, or not planning to be sold in the near future, ie could be set aside for inheritance)?
“Why are you wanting to punish those who make wealth?
“Why do you think so many wealthy people are leaving NYC (And other hi-tax states)?”

Especially a woman’s comment in the video that those who have more wealth should bear the brunt. The Leftists / Marxists not only destroy the middle class but the upper class as well.

Thank you my conservative friend and sister-in-Christ Sgt (Join to see) for posting the video perspective from Forbes as Senator John Kennedy interviews/grills as the Senate Budget committee holds a hearing on tax dodging by the wealthy and big corporations.
Unrealized capital gains
Dr. Danny Yagan answers the Senator that individuals worth at least $100 million are the wealthy than need to pay taxes on unrealized gains. He and Dr Kimberly Clausing believe the communist propaganda that those who have the ability to pay more should pay more.
I certainly hope that November 2024 election will result in a fiscal conservative senate and a sizable increase in the conservative-leaning House of Representative

At @4:44, the speaker tells Sen Kennedy that taxing unrealized gain of the wealthy has not been tested in the US yet and ithat when Europe tried it, it went badly because the wealthy exited the country, taking a large chuck of the tax base with them. Also it’s difficult trying to value assets without real market transactions. (5:29).
Overall, LTC Stephen F. I believe the “wealth tax” is unjust and will bring trouble to the country that practices it.
