So, does the buyer send a form to the seller AND the IRS?

Else, how does the gov know?

yep, or you pay someone to do it electronically.

If I pay a plumber over 600 to work on my business office, I am suppose to file a 1099. If I pay him to work on my house, no (so far, but it is coming)

This is just procedure.

note the words:

and the wealthy.

they want you to associate tax cheats with wealthy. they are one and the same in their world.

the 1099’s are overbearing accounting that raise no additional taxes. They are the straw that breaks the camels back.

What did we do to the British for taxes on tea?

IRS does not send out 1099-K forms.

They do send out blank ones to be filled in. But you are right. Completed forms are supposed to be sent by you and me.

This was how Obamacare was to be funded in the original legislation.

It is an accounting nightmare. I would suggest that cash rebates from cc might decline and retailers offer on site discount for cash. I am already seeing that as cc charges are high for vendors.

The market place does adapt. It is an overall revenue enhancement loser.

When they first started the 1099 nonsense, I had clients come in with good accounting. Then All I saw was just the 1099 reports that the govt knew about as income, not all the other income.

When the change was first approved, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said it was aimed at cracking down on tax cheats and the wealthy.

But Republicans blasted the new rules as government overreach.

Earlier this year, the House Ways and Means Committee approved a bill that would restore the old $20,000 threshold. Senators Sherrod Brown and Bill Cassidy also proposed a bipartisan effort to raise the threshold to $10,000, but those efforts have so far stalled in Congress.

Does the article ever make a point?

The point is to create controversy, take a poll and sell ads.

The unintended consequence is that it keeps the issue alive creates a discussion. Note the discussion.

The foremost reason for this reluctance lies in the fear that excavations could harm the tomb, potentially causing the loss of invaluable historical insights. Presently, the only way to access the tomb involves invasive archaeological methods, fraught with the risk of irreparable damage.

Here is an article with some science.

Getzin acknowledges that plants don’t have brains, per se, but this is an intelligent mathematical pattern. Several of the circles are also evenly spaced from one another to create a uniformly repeated honeycomb pattern — part of its eerie appearance. Researchers call this uniform design a turing pattern, which was first explained by mathematician Alan Turing.

Could it be DESIGN? or it just looks like design but it really random..............................

This is because they were able to identify specific features common to all the sites in which the fairy circles can be found. These include a very dry, arid, desert environment; high temperatures and high precipitation seasonality; and soil with very low nutrients, and a high sand content.

Global warming not mentioned in article? Interesting.

Sometimes you have to read an article and pay attention to what it doesn’t say.

The power of the media to shape public opinion is on full display.

And our power is growing. We need to use our outdoor voice.

You were right twice... it sure is gross but unfortunately, shedding a light on what is going on is critical if there is ever a hope at stopping these insidious perverts.

Folks,

Plus any ‘mandatory’ places with queue’s - like grocery stores, post offices. Any place where people HAVE to go to get ‘must-do’ things done. Actively ill people will justify their mingling because they ‘have to...’.

There was research that repetitive low exposure was helpful in becoming immune.

Walking past someone with a cold, getting a low dosage leads to the herd immunity. But this was quickly forgotten.

Trying to pit them against each other like this is really stupid.

If you look closely, the media is behind ALL of this.

. Let’s create a community that embraces this diversity with open arms and wagging tails.
