Your ignorant statement implies that investors get their capital from being "lucky" or having it given to them.  I am simply pointing out that thousands if not millions of investors earn their capital to invest through hard work.

Your ignorant statement just screams of wealth envy.  There are some in your party like Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren that wants to tax unrealized gains.

your other ignorant statement:

Anyone that works hard and saves some money can achieve the same thing.  It doesn't matter if the hard work is a waitress or perhaps a construction worker.  That's part of the "American Dream".

Working hard and saving money is not possible for everyone, especially outside of America.  That's why I mentioned the African subsistence farmer. It is a unique blessing of living in a stable society.  Therefore it is fair for that stable society to tax your capital gains.

If you want to reply to me, please only respond to what I say and not what Elizabeth Warren says.
