    What happens if some of those tax the unrealized gains bills pass in some country where they have obligations?

    They would have to either pay the tax on gains or write off losses.

      Surely only an absolute lunatic would pass that sort of law. And by then it's too late, because it's Socialism with extra steps.

        Oh, no, not Socialism! That's worse than attending a Macklemore concert!

          Macklemore concerts didn't kill 100 million people at minimum.

            Do we have an estimate on the number of people capitalism has killed? Serious question.

            Include deaths due to poverty and lack of affordable healthcare under capitalism, overworking and dangerous working conditions, and all wars and counter-insurgency waged on alternative economic systems globally.

              No, people who die as a direct result of capitalist economics are not counted because that would be inconvenient and wouldn't fit the CIA's narrative.
