Steve Posted this to you on another thread, but thought maybe someone on this thread has a reasonable answer. ;^) I think an interesting question is why the government takes Capital Gains taxes from you if you have a equity gain after selling, no matter how great or small.

In many cases a person may never be able to claim the full loss in their lifetime. In many cases a person may never be able to claim the full loss in their lifetime. I know of several such people.
