Sickening new taxes…

Posted by taxguru on June 28, 2012

As if there weren’t already enough reasons to vote every dirty rotten DemonRat out of office this November, the Supremes do this to us.  Absolutely disgusting.

Expiring Tax Provisions

Posted by taxguru on June 24, 2012

As most tax pros know, tax planning is extra tricky right now because of the impending expiration of the Bush tax rates and related provisions as of January 1, 2013.  There is no clear indication of whether or not they will be extended.

Parker’s Federal Tax Bulletin had a good recap of many of these expiring tax provisions in the following article.

Absent Congressional Action, Many Tax Provisions Are Due to Expire at the End of 2012

‘Fat Tax’ Could Curb Nation’s Obesity Problem – Dems love to use tax policy to micromanage every aspect of our lives. As with all of their schemes of this type, the results will end up making the situation much worse.

Some states asking the tax man to get tougher –  The more desperate States get for money, the more aggressive they will be in trying to squeeze as much as possible from as many people as possible.  Under the DemonRat philosophy, governments must never be expected to spend less; but the little people in the real world will have to make do with less in order to make their financial sacrifices to the gods of Big Government.

DemonRats never tire of thinking up new ways to steal money from people:

JK Harris bankruptcy trustee seeks fines and sanctions against John Harris, seizes his cellphone –  Soon, more of the scammers who promise to settle IRS debts for pennies on the dollar will suffer the same fate.

Will Mark Zuckerberg Ever Pay Taxes Again? –  An ill-informed look at how some execs decide to structure their compensation.  Just because he is only taking a salary of one dollar per year doesn’t mean he has no income taxes.  He still has tons of other kinds of taxable income.

John Snow: ‘Taxmaggedon’ Is a Real Threat. Next year’s scheduled increases on dividends and capital gains will retard investment and derail the recovery. –  As with any bad news on the tax front, this is a huge opportunity for those of us in the tax minimization profession to work with clients before they get fiscally raped.

Global Minimum Tax?

Posted by taxguru on March 31, 2012

Illustrating once more why he is the most retarded Vice President this country has had, Joe “Bite-Me” Biden is publicly calling for even more taxes while we are still in the recession that he and his master have been prolonging.  Hopefully, this kind of candor will have the same result this November as when Walter Mondull promised to raise taxes in the 1980 election; a 49 state landslide win by the GOP candidate.

In his own words, our clown VP demonstrates his imbecilic IQ. 

 

Update: It seems that Bite-Me’s boss also isn’t very well versed on what kind of rhetoric works well in presidential campaigns.

Obama Makes Election Year Call for Higher Tax Rates

Of course, since he considers himself to be a messiah, he truly believes that the consequences faced by a mere mortal such as Walter Mondull simply don’t apply to the all powerful Chosen One, Barack Hussein.
