He'll maybe convince two to three percent of people to vote for him.
And then he'll end up in this role where, you know, that's his progress in life.
But it's so crazy because he saw the moment and he seized it.
He said, OK, we can go for socialism.
That's what we should do.
And rather than be brutally honest by looking around at all the places where socialist policies have failed, and rather than diagnosing the actual policy decisions that got us here, I do not disagree with him or Gavin or anyone else that tax policy in America is fucked up.
When billionaires borrow against their unrealized capital gains, they should pay capital gains tax.
Capital gains tax should be 40%, not 15% or 18% or 20%.
They should pay the same as labor.
In fact, labor should pay less.
Income tax should be much lower.
Capital gains should be much higher.
That would be a fair tax policy.
I don't know a lot of people who are wealthy who will look me in the eye and truly disagree with that.
It's a lot of bullshit when we all say, hey, it incentivizes investment.
Great.
Incentivizes investment.
What are you going to do with your excess capital if the tax rate is 40% versus 20%?
You're not going to invest it now?
Of course you're going to fucking invest it.
