Instead of taxing unrealized gains, why not disallow the top 1%, those billionaires, from using their assets (stocks, etc) as collateral and living off of loans, aka tax-free debt, just to avoid "paying their fair share".
If people like Elon, Zuckerberg, and Bezos want to live like billionaires they should have to sell some stock for realized income to do so.
