The obvious solution to that would be to tax capital gains above inflation, using some government-standardized measure of inflation.

Yes, in an ideal world. But as you can see to responses, people still don't understand the point that I'm trying to make.

I would be completely fine with charging personal income rates on capital gains, as long as the capital gains are counted above inflation.
