$22000 in salt.... that NEVER goes down
plus an 8.625% sales tax
elimination of salt wil cost me +$3k in fed taxes
THEY CAN PUT THE “TAX REFORM BILL” you know where...
I will lay off my employees and do consuting only...
How does that grow the economy?
forget tax “reform” because it is not tax reform whatsoever...
real tax reform would eliminate all deductions and exemptions and be a 10% tax on what you earn.. from any source... billionaires would pay the same rate as a waiter...
besides Buffet owes $3 billion in back taxes and Soros owes $18 billion which shows the farcical nature of the IRS and tax colection focusing on the little guy...
HOW ABOUT CUTTING GOVERNMENT SPENDING BY 10% and not giving a lifetime pension for one term in congress and eliminate all the serect payola schemes like paying off sexual abuse claims with taxpayer funds... amd all the other perks which are tax free and they can trade on inside info to boot... you and i cant...
they drive us deeper in debt and waste 33% of what they spend... at a minimum and maybe more...
Not only is it NOT tax reform, the fu@#%kers yesterday said that, if they run a budget shortfall, that will AUTOMATICALLY trigger a tax hike!
What is should trigger is the automatic firing of every single azzhole who votes for this monstrosity.
I want my own personal trigger like that —> “Boss, we are running over our household budget this month. I want to invoke my automatic pay raise trigger to cover our shortfall.”
#14 “Buffet owes $3 billion in back taxes and Soros owes $18 billion which shows the farcical nature of the IRS and tax collection focusing on the little guy...”
I am a little guy and even after settling with the IRS and making payments each month for stock trade money they say I owed (my investments go back to 2003 and I sold in 2014), I get this in the mail yesterday.
See step 2. I cannot trust them as they do not even mention the case that was settled for the same 2014 year earlier this year. Now I have to write back and include a copy of the settlement and mail it Certified Mail which costs money then wait 6 weeks or more for any response judging from past experience. Meanwhile Buffet and Soros who are crooks get to skate. BTW they did not provide any return envelope nor a earlier notice as they say.
You Could Be Subject to Backup Withholding
We recently sent you a notice requesting your tax return or additional taxes owed. We did this because our records show that you either:
1. Didn’t report all your interest and dividends on your federal income tax return; or
2. Didn’t pay the tax on this income.
If you’ve already filed your return or paid all taxes due, please disregard this notice. You don’t need to do anything more.
If you haven’t filed your return or paid all taxes due, you could become subject to backup withholding. This means IRS will notify your payers (banks, etc.) to withhold 28% of the payments you receive for dividends and interest.
The payers will send the money to IRS and you may claim it as a withholding credit on your federal income tax return.
To avoid backup withholding, please answer our earlier notice.
If you don’t have it, you will receive another one soon.
Please send the tear-off stub from either notice with your answer in the envelope we have provided. This will help us process your answer promptly
