  • Illinois wants web shoppers to report, pay online sales tax

    Only if you report a figure on line 22.
    A zero placed there shifts the burdon of proof back to the real crooks.

    Otherwise you’ve declared that you do in fact buy on line, and brother, the next assumption by the state is that you very likely owe more for the previous six years.

    Remember, .006 for one year will not get you off the hook for the previous six years, only the penalties and interest. So, place a dollar figure less than the .006 against your gross for years 2004 thru 2010, and my friend, they WILL come after you.

    So, your choice is this: Pay up for the relevant seven years whether you owe for those years or not, or declare zero.

    Only thing is, there are the rules of God and the rules of man.
    And in this instance?
    The ones making these rules, are the biggest sinners.

    They should change the name to “used” tax.

    Not when you factor in the morality/honesty of the lawMAKERS of what is the most infamously corrupt and crooked body of legislators in the United States including the US congress and senate.

    Google “shoebox” Paul Powell as an example.

    They’re fishing for suckers, hoping to get a bite.

    If this weren't the most notorious gang of crooks scoundrels and hypocrites on the planet, the state being broke from lefty policies corruption and mismanagement (redundant, I know) they might appeal on the grounds of need the way any beggar with a modicum of legitimacy and self respect might.

    But no, these rats feel they must resort to the old familiar bullying shakedown tactics of cheating subterfuge and lying knife in the back deceit.

    Only the thing is, you think about it, they’re being *very* sneaky here. Consider the so called “amnesty” (ironic for a state overrun with illegals and their offspring because of liberal sanctuary policies) they're offering for a limited time only.

    Oh, but not on the tax you supposedly owe going back seven years (IOW the statute of limitations), but merely on penalties and interest. Which means these corrupt blood suckers have evry intention of collecting every dime applicable to the years and if you have no receipts, be no doubt happy to apply the standard .006 to your income gross covering those years, and bill you for it, whether you in fact owe that amount or not!

    That is to say, putting any figure on line 22 is tantemount to an admission that you do in fact owe the tax, and very likely owe even more going back to 2004!
    So, even if you think you're off the hook by handing over the demanded extortion by the most notoriously corrupt state in the union?

    You do that? And you can expect to hear from them again about the previous six years.
