A number of yours ago, a county near where I live put a 1% tax on all stock holdings. Not a 1% tax on the dividends mind you, but a 1% tax on the value of the stock itself.

It was stupid and unenforceable (after all, it was a county government with no real reach), and the law was repealed after a few years.

But if Obama were to try the same thing, with the entire IRS behind him...
