Jean, I live in WI(yes,it’s not easy) and I listen to a lot of local talk radio. I believe I heard that our lame governor Doyle has in his last budget (or wanted to have it there) a provision that says:
Wisconsin businesses who also have locations out of WI, will be liable to pay tax to WI, on profits made outside of WI. This is even though these businesses will have paid taxes in those out of state locations too.
That’s what I remember being discussed anyway.
Please see post 129, as Indy Pendence has more detail on this travesty than I do. It’s called “combined reporting”, in lib-speak, “hand over the dough”. Indy had an earlier post on this thread that explained it better than I could remember.
What astonishes me is that gov.Doyle robbed the Transportation Fund twice in his 2 terms as gov. And it’s all legal! He just takes from the Vehicle Registration Trust Fund (supposed to build and maintain roads with that) and puts the money other places like the teacher’s union or other friends of Doyle. He’s a bad bad man.
Believe it. They do the same thing with income tax. When I moved from another state to Wisconsin, I had to pay taxes in both states.
