If anyone seriously tries to propose taxing unrealized capital gains, I would love to ask the question, are you therefore going to provide tax deductions for unrealized capital losses? If one makes sense, the other must, too.

This is why I say an exponential sales tax makes a lot more sense to me. Because it would discourage people with resources from doing anything other than allocating it towards new economic activity that benefits average people.

Basically I am saying that luxury taxes are great, we need more of that :) But again, that is just off the top of my head. I have a lot of ideas about economics but because it's not my profession I don't have time to actually simulate them out and see how they do.

While I agree with the general proposal you state in this thread, I'm not sure I understand this particular piece of logic - isn't stock already a resource that _is_ being used? The problem is elsewhere - that you can't "swap" to another stock without being taxed in between.
