The difference being you can't buy a private jet for personal use and call it a 'pokemon card expense'.

In an abstract sense the idea that you don't benefit from unrealized gains and so shouldn't have to pay taxes until they sell makes sense.  

But in reality being the billionaire owner of a multinational megacorp *does* give you most of the benefits and advantages you would get from selling everything and having the liquid cash. In fact it generally gives you *more* benefit because it comes with influence and fame and an organization of people working for you which you wouldn't easily get with just a large bank account number.

I think having billionaires be billionaires is the lesser evil between my having to pay capital gains tax on my house, car, investments if they gain value but I don’t access it. Yes, we could put a cap or a floor in place but everyone instantly does the basic calculation: *If they can do this to billionaire they’ll do it to me,* and their not necessarily wrong to think that.
