Did I say mandatory? I meant optional! You're "free" to die in a cardboard box under a freeway as a market capitalist scarecrow warning to the other ants so they keep showing up to make us more!

By pay check is unrealized gains. I still have bills to pay. Stop taxing me.

You're not on the level of wealth this thread is about so you have nothing to worry about. Besides, your income is already taxed and in some countries it is deducted by the employer before you ever see your salary.

No shit. I'm saying its not a real gain because I haven't deducted my living expenses like rent and groceries before my employer deducts my taxes.
