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.

Libertarians have voted - and always will vote - with the GOP

Not me. Speak for yourself.

Everything you have to say is complete and total bullshit. It's lined with vitriol against the GOP aimed at Libertarians. You couldn't be anymore misinformed, and nothing but a blathering keyboard barfing bafoon.

Rand Paul is not my representative, and yes, many times he votes with the GOP to block Democrat spending bills, and often votes with Democrats to block GOP spending bills.

It's woefully ironic how you mention the GOP borrowing money from China while not addressing the elephant in the room, which is Bill Clinton bringing China in to the world trade stage, and his entire constituency supporting it. Now look, China owns American manufacturing and retail.

Seriously - you have to go back to Bill Clinton's presidency in order to support a point about Libertarians? Merely look at the Libertarians' support (nationally and locally) for EVERY GOP decision or filibuster, or vote, or bill or whatever. They're GO fucking P.

I get Rand Paul's emails each week, and I know a lot about his contsituency. He and the majority of them want him to side with the GOP on everything, which is what McConnell orders him to do, and he does it, happily. Corporations, PACS and the 1% invest millions in Paul, to help them with their massive grift of the 99% and their tax dollars. Who will pay for that massive tax cut last year? We will. Paul's a Libertarian in rhetoric only, and he's damn good at spinning that rhetoric, which is a form of double-speak. He, like the GOP and their corporate donors, are destroying the country. There is NO Libertarian who is helping anyone, especially in the long term.
