Did I say mandatory? I meant optional! You're "free" to die in a cardboard box under a freeway as a market capitalist scarecrow warning to the other ants so they keep showing up to make us more!

Of course there is going to need to be a different set of rules for businesses with few employees, I never said otherwise.

Stop gaslighting.

You replied to a comment where I had presented the case of a small business, valued at $150,000 to $250,000. I presented that hypothetical small business as an example of unrealized gains.

When I asked your preference, you stated:

A moratorium on IPOs, and purchasing of businesses in any form.

After responding to an example of a small, $250,000 business, you used unequivocal language about businesses to demonstrate your point. You certainly did "say otherwise".

But you've jumped to conclusions instead of asking and having an actual conversation about what this would look like.

My grandmother could make that "jump" in her wheelchair, and she died three years ago.

Your plan is not particularly well formed and/or you are communicating it rather poorly. Slow down, take your time, present it reasonably, and be prepared for reasonable criticism.
