US Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, suggests imposing a tax on unrealized capital gains. This means stock gains will be taxed even when they have not been sold. It also means that taxes will be owed when the value of a home appreciates, even though it has not been sold.

Classic Democrat tax and spend.

Classic democrats don't tax and spend and then also print 40% of the total money supply in one year, imo. The whole point of the taxing is so you don't have to print too much more money, which keeps inflation in check.

They are always destroying money. The problem isn't inflation as it is putting it into sectors of society that will create REAL WEALTH.

Invest in the government - they steal real wealth.

You mean US inc., corporation (not a government, for it is incorporated.)

Invest in a meritocracy that cares about middle-class purchasing power. The people invested the moment they absorbed the bonds of US inc., charted FED. Congress are just a bunch of looters at this point—members of a quasi-public/private corporation making money off the backs of the middle-class and poor taxpayers and multi-national corporations that they lobby on their behalf.

Agreed.

This weekend I ran into some interesting ideas from a guy, different than Common Law and Free Men stuff, but similar - and Canadian.

Tomorrow I may dig it out to research and share. I need more verification and validation that it could work for me. Just as the Free Men thing is very tricky, I think this would be too. Legalese and similar nonsense, even if liberty intended, are not in my comfort zone and this is not the hill I want to get arrested on.

Ain't in anyone's comfort zone. You can use old law, easier to understand or new law, which is ever changing. Latin is good to learn too. It's one big how to extract 'money' ie., labor pyramid scheme. The problem is they go after the poorer and weaker folks who are already exploited by those who have money and I mean a lot of it, that they they earned by money making money for them.

What do you know about maritime law and postal law?

[–]Jesus 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

As much as a monkey. I do know law of misnormer. Lex misnomer and I've got some very old law books in Latin english translation. Blacks law 4th edition expanded is a good book to have.

I ain't a lawyer. I'm a common man and common law is a good start. Just don't murder anyone, and you won't be tried in a magistrate but if you are arrested on false charges, simply refuse to contract and use law of misnomer. The law of contracts is definitely worth learning.
