It's hard to tax income if there's no reported income

Unrealized gains tax. Lets fucking go.

Rewrite the laws that if it's collateral, it's realized.

Tax the loans based on collateral as income and you don't even need to figure out the value of the collateral.

Then everyone taking out a home equity loan suddenly has to pay the taxes as if they sold their house.

Ok so make it that equity in a primary residence is exempt.

I just get loans on untaxed offshore collateral and write it off as a business expense like everyone else, don't you?
