Those who argue that stems from the position of the bourgeois, aka not of the working class. Their opinion has no validity, as they are in the minority.

That's not how truth works. Truth cares not for majority.

As a prole myself, I believe that taxing "unrealised gains" will cause far more harm to lower-class and middle-class people, who put their savings and resources into investments (and investment-taxed things with real use, such as homes).

Do you see those billionaires? Those people with more money than you? You probably pay more in taxes than they do. Is that fair? They get away with it because of unrealized gains.

many of the top 1% in the United States utilize an existing loophole where they take out a massive loan instead of taking out their investment with a 20% capital gains tax. by taxing those unrealized gains, the top 1% will lose a loophole.

If the goal is to make the government more efficient, why does my property tax go up due to my land price going up but the same cannot be said for Unrealized Gains?
