Obviously, Matt Shriano is a conservative, but he has said some very off-putting shit about people in the past, specifically gays. And I just want to say this, and I'm not a one-issue voter.
Matter of fact, if you ever look at all my political stances, I've never once in my entire political career made an issue about me being gay and gay, it's just not who I am.
It's part of who I am, but it's not my identity. So I want to preface this. And I think anybody who's ever interacted with me knows this about me.
There's, you're employing people, there's skin in the game. It's a little different. It's not, it's not.
But Hanson, the problem is that it might be, and I agreed with you, Vinnie, it might be the situation where unrealized, a test case for unrealized gains. In other words, you can make money on your house that you do not intend to sell, but the value of your house has gone up from your original purchase. And they amortize that year by year and you pay the capital gain on the increased value of your house, even though you have no intention of selling it.
Yeah, that's taxing unrealized gains, which is insane. That's correct. It's the same principle.
It's the same principle, but it's incorrect. Well, the left has been talking about doing this for a while. In fact, Biden talked about, well, the, the auto pen talked about doing it.
So, you know, this is a very dangerous game because basically what it tells you is you own nothing. Property, property tax, property taxes are unconstitutional anyway. Yeah, I agree.
It should only, it should only, it should only be a sales tax, a one-time sales tax. If you have to continue, if you have to continuously pay on your property after you purchase it, then it's not really yours. And the entire notion of the, the state, the king used to own all of the property in England.
And I mean, all of it. Okay. It all belonged to the government.
