There's an interesting phenomenon I can't quite understand: why are policymakers so eager to discuss unrealized gains tax, yet rarely propose taxing collateralized loans on assets exceeding the threshold? From the perspective of collateralized lending, this could actually solve many problems. Or perhaps, because such a scheme could really work, no one is willing to push it forward—losing the topic for continuous hype? The policy logic behind this is indeed worth pondering.

Oh, this perspective is a bit extreme. No one is promoting a solution that can truly solve the problem? Isn't this the essence of politics?

Hmm... The mortgage sector is indeed a blind spot, and surprisingly, no one is speaking up with viable plans to move the cheese.

Oh wow, your perspective is spot on and hits the nail on the head. The solutions that can truly solve the problem are rarely promoted because they lack hype and discussion topics for sensationalism. This routine is all too familiar.

The mortgage approach is indeed much smarter than unrealized gains tax, but think about it—if you really start to touch that cake, the rich's money won't be so easy to borrow anymore. Who would willingly move their own assets?

Ha, so this is political game playing—effective solutions are actually unpopular because they can't sustain hype and generate public opinion, right?
