I spoke with a CPA and was told the thing that determines the amount of "capital gains" tax that you pay is your earned income. The implication is, the lower the actual earned income, the lower the "capital gains" tax, down to a level. I think he told me the minimum was 10%. Hey, even as frustrating as it is sometimes dealing with all the government waste and the lack of desire to pay any tax, I'm okay with that.

Good Morning Rollers!
