I like how you conveniently left out "...for those Americans earning more than $1 million" part, is that what they call fake news??
Let's see, looks like there were 154,094,555 Individual income tax filed, out of those 541,410 is the Number of returns with AGI $1M or more (TY 2018). If my maths are right that's only 0.3% of tax returns.
https://www.irs.gov/statistics/soi-tax-stats-tax-stats-at-a-glanceNow i'm sure that there are a lot of issues with taxation etc, but tell me again how the fuck shit that's only effecting top 0,3% is what we're supposed to worry about? What if it was only effecting those hedge fund owners making over $10MM/yr, would you still feel the need to protect them?
154,094,555 Individual income taxes, collected $1,942,182MM, that's an average of $12603/return. Worst case, single filer with no dependents and standard deductions would need to earn over $89k/yr to be a net contributor. I feel for Bob and his ranch, but perhaps he can limiting his cap gains to $999k/yr for few years and the point is moot
left that out, I'm not a "reporter" (whatever that actually means these days).
Is $1 million mentioned in every headline? Nope. I doubt they'd get away with 43% even on that level. But even 28% above or below would make me think a bit more about selling whatever asset I would have.
If you believe the details will keep you safe you have nothing to fear.
There are plenty hodlers with at least multiple coins eyeing a $1 million level per coin and it would obviously concern them
they sell.
