...no kiddo, it is quite true. Besides that money has already been taxed once at the corporation. We have the highest corporate tax rates in the world. Increasing the capital gains taxes on top of that and unemployment would go out of sight.

ribit,

"...if cap gains were that high, no one would invest in anything."

Not true, think about it, how low is the interest we are 'earning' on our savings accts, its like warm spit.
Look at the low returns on bonds.
Yet folks continue to put money in their savings accounts & folks invest in bonds.

Even at a 50% tax, the capital gains returns are higher then the savings accts & bonds.
