>Most of income from employment is "unrealised".

What? You realise income in trade for your labor. Its immediately realised. It is a realised gain.

And expenses do not exist? Just getting into location, to be at workplace on a first day, is a huge upfront investment! That is even before first minute of labour happened!

Some positions have negative net income!

I literally deduct those expenses from my income on my yearly tax bill.
