      Emotion shouldn't factor into it, but a realistic understanding of history should: Anti-intellectual populist demagogues like Trump who work to de-institutionalize the system often presage systemic collapse or at the very least disestablishment of norms and the rule of law. On the other hand, if you take a purely dispassionate and data-based view of anthropogenic climate change, a woman's right to choose, and are disgusted with religion more generally, voting against Trump should be easy with zero emotion and pure logic.

Imagine what a FAT handout that would be for the 1% and the ultra wealthy. This corporate tax rate reduction is estimated to cost $673 billion over 10 years
      No, wait, that was Trump's 2017 tax bill that he signed into law.

      Its how all propaganda and control of masses work, they appeal your emotional "feel good" side, (or the feel angry) to turn of your logical thinking. there are many psychological studies showing this effect working on both financial and like strategic discissions, Even in martial arts if u can get your opponent emotionally riled he is more likely to attack over-agressively and leave themselves exposed for a counter.
      Stay cold headed people, take a couple deep breaths before reading the news and understand why and what the emotional "triggers" aimed to do.

    She only barely nicked the surface of the problems with an unrealized capital gains tax.
    1) It will require every American to submit their entire estate to be capital audited every year, to prove what your networth is, to assess your tax burden.
    2) Inflation will drive every middle class American into this tax bracket over time, just like it did with income tax (which was supposed to be temporary and only for the "rich").
    3) Yes, there will be a HUGE sell off of assets into the market to create liquidity to pay the tax bill, which will destroy the value of all asset classes, which will affect every single middle class American who owns any asset, which is most of the middle class (private holdings, 401Ks, IRAs, real estate, etc).
    4) Where will the liquidity come from? If everyone is selling to pay Uncle Sam, who's going to have the money to be buying? After all, all the people with the money are getting shaken down. The only way this "could work" is if the Fed steps up with their printer and provides the liquidity, which means the government is going to end up owning all of the businesses and assets in America, as the Fed buys everything in order to cash people out for their tax bill.
    5) This means that businesses will no longer be ran by the private sector, but by the government. The same people who are so out of control with their spending, and providing nothing in return, that they needed to resort to this sort of robbery. Do you think they will run these business any better than they do the country?
    6) This ultimately results in no American owning anything, and we are all just working for the government.
    7) Of course, when you own nothing, and can own nothing, there is no incentive to work or to innovate. So the government will then be forced to require people to work, and they will resort to heavy draconian methods to make that happen.

Harris: Which is everyone should end up in the same place, so we all end up in the same place.
    Kamala is currently worth $8M, which is $2M more than when she became Vice President. Unrealized gains, perhaps? She and her husband own a mansion in Brentwood, California, worth $5M. She still owns a 2-bedroom apartment she bought for $2M in DC when she was a senator. And, she still owns a $1M condo in San Francisco that she bought when she was Attorney General.

She brought up those countries disingenuously to try and scare you without actually explaining why those countries failed(they failed because of us policies) among other things and the last point is bad because most illegal immigrants already pay taxes believe it or not.

    *Unrealized gains do not exist.* That's the ultimate issue. They're called "unrealized" because it's just a number on paper. If I value your $20 trinket at $200, it's not worth $200, it's just assumed to be instantaneously worth $200. I didn't sell it and get $180, someone just said it is currently worth $180 more and I now owe real money on that fake number.

      All true. But what about SBLOCs? Ultimately, no legislation will come out looking like this caricature. We barely have enough IRS agents to do their job now, so there is no reason to fear monger. There are however plenty of people who use their stocks to take out loans, which entails valuations. If you're using "unrealized gains" to take out a letter of credit, it is not communism to levy a tax here.

      @@JorgeAlbertoJerez Unrealized gains are not used against loans, the total asset value is. Loans are also voluntary, rates are negotiated, the amount of the loan is not determined by outside uncontrolled forces, and loans are used to buy assets. Taxes are forced, the 25% rate is far more than any loan rate, you cannot control the gains like you can control how much you borrow, taxes are a money loss to you, not an asset trade for your potential benefit, etc.

    Her proposal on unrealized capital gains would destroy the retirement savings of the largest population in and entering their post working years. Essentially is a government program to redistribute wealth to the ruling class. With respect to her policy on immigrant healthcare, American citizens would be “denied” healthcare since they would lose access, a shortage of services. The healthcare system would be overrun and essentially destroyed.

I don’t understand a lot of economics at all, and I literally had no idea that grocery stores have to raise their prices in order to keep up with the higher cost of energy.
