Love it! In reality, outrage for bucks should be illegal, not just treated like any other income.

For sure! Assuming they actually get paid, of course.

Lock them up for tax evasion. If it was good enough for Capone, it’s good enough for them.

This is an interesting move. Will keep my eye on how this all shakes out.

Somebody is paying them. IMO they would just stay home if no one was - perhaps where there is a warm climate, but not likely North Dakota. Biggest problem I see their having is trying to determine what organization issued the check and, therefore, should also issue the W-2 or 1099.

Wonder if the protestors have signed up for SNAP payments?

about time, and Soros needs to be investigated by the IRS DOJ, and Putin asked if he wants Soros.

Of course they are being paid. You think they can take time off work for that long with no money coming in to support their families and themselves.

Hehehe!
Illegal activity or not, they should still pay taxes on their income.
It worked on Al Capone.
It will sure cut down on paid rioters, I suspect many of them are not willing to face daylight.

They also owe Federal tax in all 57 States. Today is the last day for the organizers to issue 1099s lest they face heavy penalties.

To make it worse these lefty looks are probably not getting healthcare benefits. I think we need a federal investigation here. Greenpeace and the Sierra Club are ducking out on giving Obamacare to their “workers” in the field.

I think that the state can go after them for tax evasion if they don’t pay up. It’s a step in the right direction.

And the 1099 will identify who made the payment. (Soros)

surely the FBI can/has infiltrated these groups to verify if they are being paid and who is paying them.
