Comment on Arizona Democrats fret about discovery that coud see rigged election

I’m assuming that your house is a Patrick Star style rock, and you’ve been living under it for this whole time, because house prices are up 60%+ since then, in some places more than doubling, all while wages stagnate.

Where did “I think taxes on unrealized gains are a bad idea because house prices go up” become “I don’t think house prices go up”?
That doesn’t even make sense.

If you’re paying a mortgage on a house you bought in your 20’s, you aren’t going to be affected by the taxes on unrealized gains exceeding $100,000,000, because if you had that kind of wealth you wouldn’t have a mortgage…

And how long before it gets lowered? Remember where income tax started? We have historical evidence of government greed.
