  We tax houses with unrealized gains when they sell, also.

      Yeah sorry, I ended up giving a low effort nonsense reply to an equally nonsensical reply. Perpetual cycle of stupidity over here.

      I meant to say we do tax unrealized gains with property but we also tax capital gains upon realization. The user before me said we “manage not tax things like houses and cars”.
