This is simple: Mark to market, and make them realize 2% of their assets to pay their taxes. That is what Real Estate Tax does to the middle class. The rich have had a 45 year tax holiday.

Here’s something they must’ve MISSED about history…eventually empires get overthrown, governments toppled, and even Kings or Queens have lost their heads by pushing people TOO far! THEY are NO exception…. 😎🍿🥜🍫🥤🍺🧃🍭🍼 (family-friendly viewing of SELF ownership)

He’s screwing over his own cult, who are finally turning on him because it’s CRUSHING them. Imagine trying to gerrymandering only to STILL lose!!!

This really burns my ....... this and the candidates that keep saying they would get rid of property taxes but no plan on how to fund the services we get from paying property taxes. Pie in the sky promises.

You can value stock but what is really hard, actually impossible to value via appraisal are all the Private Equity the rich hold most of their wealth in. There are no public financial disclosures on Privat Equity assets. So how do you tax it?

It's worse than that, they're looking at having people pay taxes on unrealized real estate gains. In other worse, instead of just paying property taxes on the higher value, they're going to be soaked for income tax on the difference between the basis and assessed value. This will ruin people.

They make 5-600 times the hourly pay of their employees but they don't spend 600 times more. They sit on it. Then they use that extra cash to buy political figures and get tax breaks. They're the true parasites!

Forbes publishes a list of the wealthiest people in the US with their estimated net worth. How do they determine it? I just think anyone with a net worth greater than $100 million should have a minimum tax payment each year. Their homes and yachts are worth this and identifiable.

Even the “can’t tax bcz they haven’t sold” is BS. If someone is paid w shares in a company, he is taxed on the value of those shares even if not sold and even if illegal to sell them. Example: the shares of a company are valued at $10/share. You receive 10,000 shares. You owe taxes on $100,000.

2/Example: instead of shares, you receive “non-qualified options” to purchase 10,000 shares for $10/s. You owe no tax. If you proceed to purchase the shares at a time when they are now valued at $15/s, you owe taxes on the “gain” of $50,000 even if you haven’t sold them.

Process skewed for the extreme wealth populace to remain both untaxed and unaccountable. Only bought politicians would action such policies. Really, they are supposed to work FOR you. Not the elites.

There is one difference, property normally appreciates and if it depreciates you can ask for a reassessment to lower your taxable value. Stocks on the other hand can change their value from one day to the other…. You could be forced to pay a yearly value that is totally unreal.

I noticed my home market value goes really high from May-August 30. That’s when the house tax arrives. After August 30, it depreciates by 15-25 thousand, until the next May-August hike. I’ve been watching this for years. The town claims more people look for houses during that timeframe. 🫤

If I had to pay taxes on what the market says my stock is worth on a given day, I would have to sell half of it to pay the tax. Then because I sold it, I'd have to pay capital gains on that which was sold. The government will have stolen everything I worked for. It would ruin my retirement. Fuck you

I agree with you on the property tax. It doesn't seem fair at all. COLA is a percentage increase. 3.6% of nothing is nothing 3.6% of $500 is $18 3.6% of $5000 is $180 How about they give everyone the same increase. Those that get the least need it the most.

We REALLY need to nationalize Musk's companies and then deport his POS self to say CECOT. He is a crook and a traitor to the country. As for the rest of them we really need to start looking to break up many of these companies as its too much power under those roofs and as they are F'n asshats...

I never even gave the uber Wealthy a single thought until the Trump era. Now, I utterly DESPISE them! These people have found a way to destroy our Country from within. It’s horrifying to see. I’m ashamed & embarrassed at how easily our Country has fallen prey to these ASSHOLES! Screw BILLIONAIRES.

And more oddly the rich have huge debts at their own companies, as funds from debts are not taxable too.
