now i will have to tell my tenants the rent is no longer $500/mo., but instead it is 500 x .038 = 519. i will pass the tax along and force them to see how much it is instead of burying it by continuing with a rounded off amount.
I’m not making Odungface’s illegitimate, corrupt thugs any richer. I talked to several friends about this last night and they are all going to insist renters pay in cash and give them a discount for doing so. 99% would rather pay in cash, no receipt given, than pay more and pay the tax. Some already do insist on cash and no more leases. Nothing on paper, nothing that can be proved. What he will create is a totally underground market.
