REFERENCE---LATINO JUST HERE FOR A BETTER LIFE SCAM-A-RAMA Seems this tax-sucking bottom-feeder worked for Cali's San Bernardino County Dept of Corrections. He told J/J he worked 9 mos and got 3 mos time off (cough) "to be with his children"---one of whom was (ahem) college age.
J/J asked him how he supported himself those 3 mos----he replied he collected UI.
THE SCAM Seems the Dept of Corrections aided and abetted govt fraud---they calculately "laid him off" and rehired him 3 mos later. The trough-swiller said he had been doing that for nine years...falsifying govt documents to get UI tax dollars (AKA government fraud) aided and abetted by the Cali DOC.
PS---when he was "laid off to be with his children," he was actually travelling to get laid by his girlfriend---she was suing him for a $4000 loan---which was why they were in J/J's courtroom.
There are so many ways our states and feds can $crew us.
In California, the left wingers in control of the capitol are trying to enforce back taxes on tech start up investors.
Not only are they after the so called back taxes, they want penalties for late payments for past refunds:
Engineers and hackers dont think much about tax policy, but theres a bizarre development in California that they should know about, since it could reduce the pool of angel-investment money available for tech startups. Under a tax break available since the 1990s, startup founders and other investors in California were allowed to exclude or defer their gains when they sold stock in California-based small businesses. Last year, a California appeals court ruled that the tax break was unconstitutional, since it discriminated against investors in out-of-state companies. Now the Franchise Tax Board, Californias version of the IRS, has issued a notice saying how it intends to implement the ruling and its a doozie. Not only is the tax break gone, but anyone who claimed an exclusion or deferral on the sale of small-business stock since 2008 is about to get a big retroactive tax bill. Investors, entrepreneurs, and even the plaintiffs in the original lawsuit are up in arms about the FTBs notice, saying that it goes beyond the courts intent and that it will drive investors out of the state. This Xconomy article takes an in-depth look at the history of the court case, the FTBs ruling, and the reaction in the technology and investing communities.
