- Arnt 2y agoHe's a rightwing crybaby and also a fool. But that tax is a problem. For example, it's not restricted to tradable assets. Some assets are exempt, but ability to trade is not a reason for exemption. If you own an asset that's valued at x, that's it, no matter whether you can sell a part of the asset or not. If five friends set up a startup and then they get a first round of investment, those five friends are going to have a tax bill based on the investment round, and the inability to sell shares in an unlisted startup isn't relevant. I pay my taxes with my head held high, but I also do object to being required to do something that's practically impossible.
- janmarsal 2y agoSo you get a mandatory "benefit" by the right of birth and then you're indebted for the rest of your life to that benefit? If you leave you get put on the wall of shame. What is this, positive slavery? Give him some slack. At least the freedom of womb if total abolition is too much.

- xenospn 2y agoTaxing unrealized gains is incredibly stupid, Although it only affects a tiny percentage of the population. Norway is still one of the best places to live in the world. Being born there is basically winning the global lottery.
