Die niederländische Regierung (Niederlande), die am 13. Februar die umstrittene Steuer von 36 % auf nicht realisierte Gewinne eingeführt hat, ist nach massiven Protesten gezwungen, ihre Entscheidung zu überdenken.
Der Steuerminister Eugène Heijnen verspricht, den Gesetzesentwurf zu überdenken.
Die Steuern auf nicht realisierte Gewinne gelten für Kryptowährungen, Aktien, Anleihen und andere Vermögenswerte und sollten im Jahr 2028 in Kraft treten.
Die Besteuerung nicht realisierter Gewinne war in der Vergangenheit schwierig, da diese im Gegensatz zu realisierten Gewinnen nicht festgeschrieben sind.
Ein früheres Gesetz über „angenommene Renditen“ wurde vom Obersten Gerichtshof der Niederlande für verfassungswidrig erklärt.

Netherlands Forced to Rethink 36% Tax on Unrealized Gains after Massive Criticism

Taxes on unrealized gains are insane. If I invest $100,000, and it goes up to $200,000, and I am forced to pay taxes on those unrealized gains, and then it crashes to $0, then I’m out the original $100,000, lost out on any gains, and had to shell out taxes on non-existent money.
Good. The housing market in the Netherlands is absolutely f*cked, for anyone with a normal income investing is basically the only realistic way to build up enough wealth to eventually buy a house.
Taxing unrealized gains is so extremely dumb. The rich would just find loopholes to get around it while normal people take the full blow.
Wait so a govenment can rethink something they proposed and was widely criticised and protested instead of not giving a shit what the constituents that voted them in think, and just doing it anyway because they are lining their own pockets instead of putting the ppl first? That doesnt seem right… 🤔
I don’t see how an unrealized gains tax is anything except straight up theft.
That’s just saying „Oh you have assets that you haven’t sold? Ok, let me help myself to your bank account. Thanks!“
All I know is that people on reddit kept arguing with me and saying that this was an amazing idea. That it was the best way to get money back into the economy and that stock price doesn’t affect the company.
Not surprising. This is about rich people too, so that’s why there’s action. Poor people could protest all they want.
I hope they don’t accept this outrageous robbery.
They should give tax back for unrealised losses too
