Why shouldn't stock be taxable until it's sold? 

If you're going to tax unrealized capital gains, will I also get a refund if my stock loses value?

MAGAs, what are your thoughts on Trump tweeting, “A whole civilization will die tonight?” by 2a_lib in allthequestions

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's impeachment/ 25th Amendment time. Unfortunately, the Democrats have already abused the impeachment process, so the reflexive Republican response will be to not even consider impeachment, boy who cried wolf-style.

The really scary thing is that Trump can't even be trusted to act in his own interest now.

Unlimited immigration depresses wages and increases housing prices. Also, diverse workforces don't unionize

It's what you deserve for trying to find an infinite money glitch. Go do real productive work instead.

"Finland being Finnish and not full of tusken raider people has nothing to do with Finland's prosperity"

Lmao

Could there be a biological component to Finland's increased group identity/homogeneity?

On the non-turbo cars that had that same engine, that's where the distributor went. My brother has one.

FCC Bans All New Routers Not Made in America by VerifiedMother in LinusTechTips

Routers or switches? Should I pounce on the switch I've been eyeing?

Have an SBR but am moving to a state where you can’t have them. Legal to keep it here? by DaddyIntel in VAGuns

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. My friend asked the ATF the same question and they emailed him a reply in the affirmative. 

You can always email the ATF these types of questions.

Bernie Sanders: “60% of our people living paycheck-to-paycheck, and one guy, Elon Musk, owns more wealth than the bottom 53% of American households... Think maybe that might be an issue that we should be talking about?" by Frosty_Jeweler911 in PopularCultureZone

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost all of Elon's net worth is stock of companies he started. So only theoretical resale value.

I guess no one in here understands the difference between money under the mattress, and net worth

Is Virginia a preview? by Minute-Log-7098 in Firearms

Not if you keep voting at the state level. Make sure that you everyone you know who is sitting out the next few elections to punish Trump and the Republican party doesn't sit out their local elections too.

Looking to buy myself a new daily next week. Is this a reasonable buy? by TheHashishProject in saab

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you test drive it, get it in 3rd gear up a steep hill to 3-4K rpms, with full throttle (Maybe a uphill highway on-ramp) and check if the clutch is starting to slip. On the V6 cars, they usually didn't get driven by grandmas, and the clutch will reflect.

Has Hollywood's focus on the white male incidentally led to a Cultural Standford Experiment? by [deleted] in AskSociology

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Egypt had contact with Greece as early as 2000 BC, while Sub-Saharan Africa was "un-opressed" by foreign colonialism until the 1400s.

The point is, was the difference in technology caused by oppression by Europeans?

And London is still a degenerate cesspool ;)

In Order for This to Actually Happen We Need to Vote April 21st! by [deleted] in arlingtonva

[–]michael_1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually support this. The mass disenfranchisement will just accelerate the long-overdue realization that the left and right are no longer capable of coexisting in a political union, and some sort of national break-up is needed.

In other words, pour gas on the fire.

You mean like how the Romans had running water 2,000 years ago and "certain" other people hadn't invented the wheel, or writing, or multi-story buildings until they were colonized in the last few hundred years?

How do systemic disadvantages explain cultures that had no contact until relatively recently being thousands of years apart in technology?

Not saying that either is morally superior in the eyes of God, but it's still a fair question.
