Just watching Fox and he  has agreed to a wealth tax to pay for Stalinizing America. Its a tax  on unrealized capital gains. If you bought a house for  40k 30 years ago and  its worth  300k now the  Irs will send you a tax  bill regardless  of whether you sell the house. If you cant pay the  bill  then you are forced to sell the house. We all knew  he was going to cave.

I would not be so quick to panic. Nothing on this has been agreed to, although I am very concerned that something may get passed. On that note, yesterday it was announced that a sneaky provision in the bill allowing for unlimited green cards for foreign workers to come to America. This would put downward pressure on wages and would basically be a disaster. This bill is loaded with America Last policy. I can't imagine that any of this will get passed.

Manchin's  voting record is  little  different than Elizabeth Warren.

Our hope hinges on Manchin desiring to run for another term. That is the only thing keeping him from folding.

Manchin wants to be President, he thinks this maneuver will appeal to the few remaining old fashion Dems or "Moderates" who are appalled by the radicals in charge of their party. Perhaps appalled enough to support him against Sniffer

We can hope. The  unrealized capital gains tax Manchin supports  is running  into trouble.

There are tons of lawyers lining up to bring suit if the unrealized capital gains piece is included in the bill.
