Taxing unrealized gains is immoral and unethical. Only someone economically illiterate would propose this. Here is why?

Australians somehow thought emulating China was a good idea. Once a government gains this level of control you have tyranny. Power acquired by the government is never relinquished back to the people by peaceful means. Just history.

White liberals can be so incredibly condescending towards minorities. They wrongly believe that it comes from a place of compassion. It doesn't. It is from a position of arrogance and condescension, the soft bigotry of low expectations.
