Unrealized gains is nothing more than theft. The double whammy would be being charged tax on unrealized gains and then selling your capital investments and paying capital gains taxes on the same amount. Ex: House bought for $50,000 (basis) now worth $100,000 with $50,000 of that in gains. Thus, you pay tax on the unrealized gain of $50,000 even though you don't want to sell it. Then you sell it for $100,000 and pay capital gains taxes on the $50,000 profit. Looks like double taxation on the $50,000 increase, first, as unrealized gains tax, then, capital gains taxes on the same $50,000. Two different taxes on the same $50,000.

^^unnamed?? A big time Dem perhaps, though in a Mitsubishi, probably not?


Re: Jack Daniels. These companies would never be dropping DEI if not for X and other social media not named Google, Meta, YT, or Instagram. If Twitter were still around any mention of DEI wokism or a DEI boycott would be censored.

There is/was a liberal law professor (being redundant here), Sanford Levinson, at the U of Texas Law School who wrote a law review article called, "The Embarrassing Second Amendment". It's a very interesting read.

In the article, Levinson talks about United States v Miller, a SCOTUS case wherein it was decided that Miller, arrested for possessing a sawed-off shotgun, was guilty of violating the National Firearms Act by having a shotgun with a barrel less than 18 inches in length. Miller argued that the gun was protected by the 2nd Amendment. The SCOTUS ruled against Miller, in part, claiming that a sawed-off shotgun was not a part of the normal military arsenal which the 2nd Amendment applied to. (We know that members of the US military and others have used shotguns in WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam and other actions. But, I digress.)

Levinson states, "it is difficult to read Miller as rendering the Second Amendment meaningless as a control on Congress. Ironically, Miller can be read to support some of the most extreme anti-gun control arguments, e.g., that the individual citizen has a right to keep and bear bazookas, rocket launchers, and other armaments that are clearly relevant to modern warfare, including, of course, assault weapons. Arguments about the constitutional legitimacy of the prohibition by Congress of private ownership of handguns or, what is much more likely, assault rifles, might turn on the usefulness of such guns in military settings."

Tucker and Beck are caught up on the cabal, and that’s good, but years behind the LAC


No. Wrong. Beck has had his personal issues, but has always been ahead of the curve. He called 911 long before and was a savant predicting the 2008 collapse. He is far more right than wrong . . . just misunderstood and mistrusted due to his internal demons he has now overcome. He is one of the best sources if you can handle his unorthodox style (which I happen to love).
