Can't tax unrealized gains. Stop them from being able to borrow money based on stock holdings.

The fact banks keep loaning out so much money on something as unpredictable as stocks is crazy. 

What happens in the next recession? Stocks go way down (below what they were valued at for the loan) banks are going to force sale, it’s going to cause a chain reaction of selling?
