All capital gains and losses foot on schedule D line 16 and flows into 1040 line 7. The worksheet below breaks out items treated differently like section 1250 recapture, qualified dividends and LTCG:
It’s all income, just different tax rates and rules.If you want higher LTCG tax rates sure, crank it up I don’t care.
Wealth tax is NOT simply asking for higher tax rates.
Wealth tax typically includes unrealized capital gains. All unrealized gains eventually become realized one way or another. At that point LTCG tax or estate tax applies.
Taxing unrealized capital gains is a terrible idea. Wealth tax is a terrible idea. Income tax is just fine. Income tax includes realized capital gains. Crank that rate up if you want. Just no wealth tax. These are completely separate concepts.
the fact you even had to say “typically” means its a broad term that just means different things to different people. if someone wanted to tax unrealized gains specifically, they would say that. they didn’t. they’re essentially just saying they want wealthy people to pay taxes.
this has been repeatedly told to you. you even used a specific rate to describe income tax as being enough. that alone would have excluded your whole, now further expanded upon but originally excluded by definition, explanation.
this was also extremely clear from everything i said. multiple times. but obviously, like i said, multiple times, you’re in agreement with me. you just have some hangup on the definition of an ambiguous word that the original user gave no further intent behind and just jumped to your own conclusions on nothing, despite being told, repeatedly.
do you understand now?
I’m done here. I can’t believe you’re arguing with someone who has repeated been on the same page as you. Nothing you’ve said is in disagreement with me (except my claim you’re not a CPA). Its like you just want to hear yourself talk or “win” something. Especially after that childish rant about someone not responding to you on the internet. Honestly. You should be ashamed of that. I don’t get it. Do you want the last word or not? It’s behavior like that which makes me believe you aren’t a CPA because you’re not acting like a goddamn fucking adult.
So you don’t get all stressed out or angry or need an extra call to your therapist, i’m not going to respond again, but I might downvote you just for fun. And honestly, why is an upvote without a comment ok but a downvote without a comment isn’t? Someone can disagree with you and leave it at that. They don’t owe you anything, you entitled ass.
