Tax on Unrealized Gains to Include Video Game Loot?

Babylon Bee: Janet Yellen Proposes Tax On Coins You Acquire In Mario

"Every time your little Mario or Luigi character on the screen collects a coin, that's an unrealized gain," said Yellen. "Why are we allowing all those coins—not to mention all those power stars and power moons—to just sit in Mario's pocket untaxed?"

Experts estimate that over 32 billion coins are collected in Mario games every year, and all of those gains go completely untaxed, allowing gamers to reap the benefits of power-ups and extra lives without sending any money to the government.
