Can’t wait for people to say “she will carve out an exception for us!” That’s never how it works. Communists never stop. She will hit “the rich,” which you think you aren’t, and then she’ll come for your house.

Not true.

1. 25% wealth tax applies ONLY to those with $100M+ in active assets.

2. Primary home value is excluded.

3. Unrealised capital gains tax will apply to assets ACCRUED, meaning it is not retroactive.

Is that $100 million valuation including the unrealized gains or not? Because the vast majority of people's "wealth" is based on unrealized holdings, not their bank account.

Also, explain how an evil is less evil if it only happens to other people.

I think it’s bad policy, but the scaremongering here is ludicrous. Even without excluding primary residence, the number of Americans with 100m+ in assets is what… 15k? Maybe? It *is* possible to oppose bad policy with stupid arguments divorced from reality of that policy.

Income tax was sold the same way and we all saw how that turned out you crap gargling commie.
