Make taking loans on untaxed stocks realized gains. That would have a huge effect maybe not in tax revenue but in perception and closing a massive loophole.

Thank you for laying out why taxing billionaires won’t solve any problems but also it’s not realistic. Most people think billionaires have billions in cash.

Maybe a cap for the capital gains cap 500m that they can borrow against this way if they want more they need to sell the shares tax that. Maybe? Not an expert lol
