There's a vast amount of wealth is owned by average Americans. So you cannot go to this vast amount of Americans and charge them unrealized cap gain. So then you have to say, okay, that's not the intention. We're going to exclude all these things and And then also asking that, are you setting up a dangerous precedence? Now we are doing that to go after a small group of people.

It sounds very popular that we're going after these 20 people who are ungodly rich. Are we setting up a dangerous precedence? Like now we're going after 20. Now next we're going to go 2,000. Then we're going to go 200,000. Where does it start and where does it end? So I think when you have to think about the policy is that what sometimes feel right could set very dangerous precedents.

And that's what we need to be very, very careful about. What is the unintended consequences of those things?

Listen, I think one of the things that happened with internet, people always underestimate how big these businesses can be. Not for the companies, but how it will change the economy. I think people get too focused on technology cuteness, you know, how cool this tech is. I think what's important is not how cool the tech is. What's important is, is this technology improved productivity or not?

Because at the end of the day, what is a GDP? gdp is number of people who are producing inside your map right in your country so ultimately the higher productivity will drive higher gdp growth so if the technology improved productivity that has incredible an opportunity to unleash value so us gdp is what 25 trillion or something like that or 30 trillion five percent improvement is 1.5 trillion

You have to, because if you don't spend, your business goes to zero. So look at Google versus Yahoo situation. So what happened? Google spent the CapEx, Yahoo didn't.
