Everyone talks about the possibility of the billionaire tax proposal imposing an unrealized gains tax burden on billionaire investors while completely ignoring that the little guys (millions of private employees = voters) already have to live in this reality of often making a massive upfront gamble on unrealized/fictional gains relative to net worth.
The winning policy is to eliminate unrealized gains tax for billionaire investors plus the unrealized gains tax burden private employees already have to take on when exercising their options.
Trump could literally “Trump” here by saying his policy would be to never tax unrealized stock gains on anyone ever thus he’s eliminating them all together
