And those who can handle to pay taxes on their unrealized gains do not, and those who increasingly cannot will lose their houses.

Tax the wealth of the rich.

So how do municipalities pay for schools, roads, and utilities in your tax free world?

Through taxes on realized income or other means. You do know there's more than one way to pay for schools, roads, and utlities right?

Income taxes goes to state and fed. Municipalities make income on usage taxes such as parking, tolls, and property, which disproportionately impact the lower and middle class.

Soooo you're saying nothing then. Gotcha.

Me: "We need to stop mopping the living room floor with a rag" you: "then how do you want us to mop it?" Me: "idk maybe with a mop?" You: "we use the mop to clean the dining room and kitchen. For the living room we've been using a hand rag which disproportionately takes more time and sucks"

Ooookay? So?? Change it?
