Yes, but the rate of tax should depend on the investor's personal income coupled with the increase of taxes for the wealthy and elimination of tax loopholes. Income is income and the more you make, the more taxes need to be paid. If a person makes $1,000 on an investment app like Robinhood, but only has income of $40,000...they should be taxed at whatever $40K tax bracket it. On the contrary, if a billionaire who makes billions per year makes a billion dollars on an investment, they should be taxed at a higher rate on that billion they made than the person who earned a grand with a $40K income.
