I am nearly 100% sure that it will be "guns" responsible for carjacking, not any D policies.

So many shit sandwiches, so little time.

These types of threads are so pointless through the lens of a false paradigm. What about Bitch Connolly, Fat-ass Christie, The Bush's, Lawrence King 'o pedophiles, Nixon, etc, etc, etc?

If you can't see that the shit's coming out of both pipes, you're all in for your fill of it.

ALL Libtards. RINOs.

Yep, I heard this rule somewhere: "more than half of Republican politicians are really Democrats and all Democrat politicians are Democrats".

Both R and D are mostly statists, but there are more anti-statists among R's these days.

Sure, among the PLEBEIANS, not the people "in the party".

It's starting...

Ray Epps is at it again!

Been there, done that crap at Bezerkely. My roommates were depraved shit kickers from LA, and just went to the riots to be shit kickers. There were 'activists' from back East, and they got mad because I asked why they only protested in nice weather. How come they never went out in the cold or drizzle for their 'principles'.

Hardly any politician is at all sincere. How long have the Democrats been blowing smoke up their constituents ass about codifying abortion? 50 years. Or passing universal health care? "ovambacare" is just what Romney did in MA. How many years did the Democrats pretend to be antiwar? How long did they pretend to support labor?

Both parties are total shit and I might be the only person on this site that OCCASIONALLY sees what bills are being passed into law. None of them read them, they are too long.

The short of it is that it's obvious our "representatives" don't represent us, we don't have anything like a republic, and you don't care. This is an oligarchical dictatorship, it could never be more obvious, and you argue about the fake parties, which is better or worse

We are still arguing about parties and which is better or worse when we have a senile old man as fake president. How could it be more obvious it doesn't matter who wins an action? When Trump was president, they just ignored orders blatant. He ordered the end of the Syrian war

This sarcasm? Your house isn't taxed until you sell it. If it's primary it's $250k single and $500k married tax free. You wouldn't be taxed in this scenario. Also property taxes wouldn't double either. Not sure "Sparky" understands real estate and taxes.

Also, I don't get this taxing unrealized gains? Never heard of that. You get taxed when you sell or take dividends as cash and not reinvest. Is there some new proposal floating out there?

WookieMan says

He understands how they would work with an Unrealized Capital Gains tax...which you just admitted you don't understand but decided to rant about this anyway.

WookieMan says

This sarcasm?

I am just flat going to troll your ass because I am so fucking sick and tired of PatNetters refusing to exhibit critical thinking skills or commen sense before commenting on something.

Here is a radical thought: Try researching something you don't know before shooting your mouth (inaccurately so) off about it.

Woah everyone! Stop the car! This concept is AMAZING! Why didn't anybody think of this before? Holy shit! This might even eclipse the invention of Fire and the Wheel!

Or, if you want to insist on pulling a TPB on this because it hurts all over the doll called Your World View, then fuck it: Yeah, it's sarcasm, ok. Sparky doesn't know shit. The End.

Yo @Ceffer

Sorry to pull you into this. But I just noticed you Liked that screenshot Wookie is struggling to understand. I assume you get the context?

If so, consider taking a crack at filling Wookie in please? You'll prolly do a better job at it right now than me.

On the other hand, don't blame you if you don't want to, either.

I get the point that it is more 'inflation taxation', which seems to be the point, whether realized or unrealized for a particular individual(s).

Beyond that, of course, it depends on circumstances. I will be neutral and say you both have a point, LOL! There is a one time capital gains 'exemption', but you have to 'claim' it, which not everybody does between transactions. I am not certain with the costs in California I will ever claim it because costs are so high for anything nice, we seem to buy up in cost rather than down, unless we move away to a much cheaper place.

You do need to keep your receipts and include every single improvement to deduct from your 'capital gains' bolus when you sell to reduce that liability. From California, you might very well wind up exceeding the exemption and have to pay taxes, but you also have two years to put your equity towards a new home of equal or greater value, so the equity does tend to stay 'locked up'.

I suppose one upside is that when your home goes up and you are getting very old, you can get more on a reverse mortgage for regular payments from the inflated home.

I guess I can be shat upon by all, now, instead of shatting upon one another.

Unrealized Capital Gain taxation means instead of paying cap gain taxes on sale, you 'pay withholding' during the lifetime ownership of the asset.

Similar to withholding from your paycheck even though you really owe the taxes at the end of the year.

If you took an unrealized loss later, supposedly you would get it back as a tax credit in that later tax year, after applying to your other tax liabilities, if any.

That was the bullshit Treasury told SCOTUS in a very limited case involving an already existung unrealized gain tax of overseas assets and SCOTUS bought that bullshit in January when it ruled on the case.

The libtard in that screenshot Matt Huang posted an example of how it would work involving stocks. He obviously spun this in a way to minimize opposition.

Sparky took that example and applied it to R/E. And obviously it was not in a way Matt the Libtard liked.

Or anyone else, for that matter.

Hence, the shit sandwich:



Biden is supposedly going to add this to the upcoming 2025 budget bill. To apply ONLY to assets above $100 million or so in value.

Dunno what Kamala would try to do in FY2026 - FY2028. But I am sure as shit Trump wouldn't push for this.

But that is how it starts. Like the income tax originally only applied to the top 5% or so back in 1914.

Yes. It's insane. But that is the Left for you. Also, government debt is out of control or soon will be.

Even the GOP will entertain this before cutting spending. Although things would get pretty bad if starts to hit middle class homes sooner than later.

DemocratsAreTotallyFucked says

Hence, the shit sandwich:

OK, I get it now ( I think). Thanks. The withholding on unrealized gains is a priori robbery, rather than the advantage in the delay of realizing the asset when convenient or strategic for taxes.

Your unrealized withholding may be more than you can afford to keep the inflated asset. It isn't really a withholding, it is tax extortion (government downpayment tax lien) against your asset, since it is money that is sacrificed and doesn't work for you.

Exact same can be said about your income tax withholding. Income taxes you owe are not considered an indirect tax (transaction) but a direct one, like applied to other assets.

The 16th Amendment didn't change that definition. It only exempts direct taxation of it from the Apportionment Clause.

Odd, because my property taxes just went up over $2,000 per year based on houses in my county being reassessed to sync with inflation.

That is one thing California has over most of the rest of the nation, Prop 13.

Tax on the sale. Don't be that obtuse to act like you didn't know what I was talking about. I said the word sell.

Also $2k increase in a year means you are living in a $2-3M house regardless of state. That shouldn't be a big deal in that case if you can afford that house. Even on that expensive of a house $2k would be a lot in one year coming from someone in the 2nd highest property taxed state. Not buying it unless there was a major school district referendum or something.
