Also your money in your account isn’t real until you take it out of the bank is true. You never heard of a rush on the bank? Your bank isn’t keeping most of your money, they are using it. The system only works if everyone believes it works, but if everyone took it the money, 90% of people would find out there money isn’t there.
Same with taxing stocks. It only works if everyone isn’t rushing to the market to sell. If we taxed stocks, the money would have to come from somewhere or the system collapses. This is why no party has dared yet taxing unsold stocks. It would collapse the system.
Have you heard of a federal reserve? Yes your bank doesn’t have your money, but someone does. Your money someone else has is insured by the federal reserve so bank runs don’t happen. You’re talking about an economy that existed 100 years ago.
You are so very wrong. The Fed does NOT have the cash, nobody does.
It exists only in the banking system itself with no tangible assets to back the majority up, we don’t have the actual cash to cover even 10% of deposits.
Where did you hear “the fed has the money”? Please share how the Fed “has the money” (or anybody else).
The “insurance” will collapse, just as the banks
You’re talking about an economy that does not exist. The FED does not have the cash.
Also, please note the more cash that they do print, the less the dollar is worth… this is called “inflation”.
They can’t give it to you because it’s not real.

You clearly didn’t know how money works

You literally can. You can transfer ownership of stocks. Dumb argument.
How did transferring stock ownership help the common person, or help the government run programs?
Until you actually can’t, super dumb argument. We’ve seen these “bank runs” over and over again, they aren’t mysteries.
