SteveJ @sejarzo.bsky.social · 29/06/2026I agree with the concept that some rich folks do not pay their share. However, some exorbitant tax rates I've seen proposed on unrealized gains would force a major shareholder to sell stock to pay the tax, thus driving down the value of the shares for all investors in that stock. 100
