Not true.
Companies file quarterly returns with the IRS directly and the Social Security Administration directly, usually accompanied by a wire transfer, but sometimes a check, depending upon the size of the company reporting.
The states are not, and never have been, intermediaries in this process.
I agree with that, maybe it is time the states take a more active roll in trimming back the Fed. I'm trying to find the link (read it here on FR) where Missouri was (at the state level) looking to enact such an idea (which is where I got it from).
Missouri could pass any law it wishes, but the IRS code concerning reporting and remittances would have to be changed by Congress before it could be enforced.
It’s only hard to do because our politicians are whores that need loopholes for all their best contributors. It would be easy to get a tax code that’s under 100 pages, but they don’t want it, so we’ll never get it.
Doesn’t the CBO have to use dynamic scoring now? That means that tax cuts can pay for themselves over time, unlike government bailouts.
IMHO, at least the 17th was done ‘correctly’. The 16th is invalid as it does not negate the 5th nor the 13th Amendment...how can there there be conflict and both be Constitutional??
Let’s even take it one step further and say the 16th IS ‘valid’. There are only a limited number of functions that the Congress is authorized to perform, just how much $$/% income would it take to fund those??
Problem is, we lost the judiciary to reign in the rest...’winning’ D.C., still won’t do any of use jack sh!t.
