    If there was to be a capital gains tax, (I would like to see a reduction in income tax or a reduction in GST). In addition you will need to have an inflation adjuster to account for artificial price increases.
    Australia have a capital gains tax that is at marginal rates for any gain realised when sold within 12 months. If held for longer than 12 months then there is a 50% discount on the tax. This was easier than applying an adjustment for inflation.


    The USA is different but similar to Australia in that it depends on length of investment.
