Day 4 assuming the egg isn't at chicken body temperature.

That is, you could be at day 14, and the egg is still fresh and fertile, so long as the eggs haven't been at chicken temperature.

As soon as they sit at chicken temperature, they start to develop.

A chicken can lay eggs in the same nest for weeks, then start to sit on it, and they all start to develop once she sits on them.

Simply tax it as if it underwent a buy/sell/trade. Capital gains and losses are accounted for in that at the time the value is utilized. They are tracked, and you don't pay them later.

Reasonable home ownership (only home) could be exempted.

Yep. And it is easily rationalized as doing the right thing, until its too late to do differently.

Not a bad plan.

I don't agree with unrealized gains taxes in general, but the instant they are used as collateral, or if value in any way is extracted from them (even loan value), they become realized gains, and should be taxed.

The irony is when you see people who are so capable, in some senses, of intelligent discourse on the matter, but still can't see through the issue well enough to reach others in a similar situation, but settled in a different set of ideas. In the end, we don't like it, it's up to us to resolve those emotions. It may not be easy, but it works - whereas anything else defers the issue.

It's natural for you to say "who welcomes me? Who attacks me?" and go with those who welcome you.

That doesn't make it effective at making the overall situation better.

Right?

Bernie is, and always has been, The Man. In the good sense.

He's like a bee, telling the rest of the hive where the joy is at.

Nice. Good looking out.

It does, though. It doesn't have to make sense to you, but it's natural for people to say "who welcomes me? Who attacks me?" And go with those who welcome them. Is it simplistic? Sure. But either you learn how to take on the educational and emotional burden of reaching out, or you have extra enemies.
