Leftists are salivating - drooling - for a wealth tax

[ThisIsMe]

It is merely a sales tax on a transaction

Similar to if you buy a car or refrigerator

When you buy a refrigerator or a car, you actually receive a tangible asset for your money. Buying stocks is not a tangible asset. When you cash it out, it is a tangible asset.

plus, you are trying to use sales tax as an example of trying to get an unrealized capital gains tax.

Stocks are wealth on paper. How do you tax something when you don’t know the value it will be sold for?
