No matter what I said prior, did not matter. It was Joes Treasury Secretary's statement about taxing unrealized capital gains. Only crazy people actually say things like this, whether or not it happens. He got that. Then I showed him a picture of the health secretary, and he just looked and said.... maybe I should have listened to you (fake chuckle).

They're going to destroy the stockmarket because our 401ks are in there. They don't want a middle class. I'm terrified. I'm heavily invested.

That's not going to do anything, when they are taxing unrealized gains (and thus, making a small profit even smaller). Then they'll tax it when you do realize the gains as well, all but stealing ALL of the profit.
ONLY the mega wealthy will be able to profit on the stock market through their economics of scale. The rest of us will put money in, and get the same or less back.
Right, they will use their German bank to make a billion dollars on a fraction of a one penny rise which is inevitable when they buy a trillion shares, and the profit will be realized in Ireland, in which they will use it to extend credit to themselves, pay themselves the interest, and write the interest off on their taxes.
Smells like Bolsheviks. It's a big fat red pill.
