IMHO'This article, by Andrew Barry, is almost like 'clickbait.' I say almost because, while it's actually a Congressional proposal it has very little chance of passing. It's an idea that only a bureaucrat, associated with a 'overspend' Government looking for ways to tax and spend more could like. No rational person would think it is feasible.
For instance, if the Government taxed paper gains wouldn't they then pay/credit or refund for tax losses? What a flippin nightmare.

Andrew Barry likes to write about Cathy Wood also to attract eyeballs.
Just a non tax experts opinion.
GLTA,
