The top federal tax rate on long-term capital gains is 23.8%. I'm not sure where your 15% comes from. Calculation of capital gains does not account for inflation. Taxing a nominal increase in value over multiple years at the same level as income makes no sense. I resent the implication that I am indoctrinated in some parochial ideology. Especially considering I'm not even American.
