holy hell!
he wants to allow corporations and individuals to 'tip' anyone any amount , tax free
this is a tax avoidance scheme of the grossest kind
Harris has said that she wants legislation implementing the tax cut to only apply to the people we traditionally think of when we think of tips: waiters, maids, caddies, and other service-industry customer-contact workers.
Trump, on the other hand, has refused to limit his no-tax-on-tips proposal to such workers, opening up the possibility that big banks, insurance companies, hedge funds, and other companies that traditionally have paid year-end bonuses — sometimes in the millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars — could simply reclassify their bonuses as tax-free tips.
**Adding to the confusion should Trump’s plan go into place, the Supreme Court earlier this year expanded the definition of tips when they ruled that if politicians or judges are paid bribes, but the payments are made *****after ***the politician or judge does the requested favor, they’re no longer bribes but, instead, merely tips.
Jesus H. f#$k Christ, let's not normalizing bribes.
That opener make me want to shit on Reagan's grave. I'm starting to think if he was alive today he'd endorse the Orange One.
I would tell my employer that I will work for free, as long as I get $x as a tip each month.
Tax fee income.
