Visiting Athletes Tax

Visiting Athletes Tax

Should be welcomed by socialists everywhere, maybe a national athletes tax to make things "fair."

Then, when the yankees visit KC or other small markets they could "pay their fair share" so that the "working folks" have the "tools" and "resources" they need to "compete."

Socialists - always trying to tax their way to prosperity.

Why not, minorities paying taxes instead of benefitting from them, that would be a nice change

 

[Grrr...]

I would much rather that the government put a mandatory tax on college students from out of the country if they intend to return to their foreign land. It's about fucking time we proactively stop the brain-drain as these student come here to get educated then leave and head nuclear weapons programs abroad.

You've been forever whining that minorities do not pay taxes.

Do you have any proof of that or are you just spewing shit as always, you fucking moron?

Why not tax them to the point where they make no more than 250,000 per year. And take away scoring so that there are no losers. You get to the Championship game by bringing in the least amount of taxes. Now that should level the playing field.

See it would be not fair to tax just visiting player(s) all players should pay the same taxes. Equality right everyone is the same.

Or how about this way of looking at it.

If everyone is equal, then anyone who wants to play in pro-sports should be able to play without having to try out for the team. Right?

I mean if someone is better at something than someone else, the better player shouldn't be rewarded or penelized for the hard work or didcation to the sport they play. Right?

So John Q Sailor should be able to drive an AC boat rather than a Dean Barker. Right?

I mean fair is fair. this is the way the left sees it. Right?

Visiting Athletes Tax

If this becomes widespread it turns into a wash.

The visiting team players pay income tax on their earnings to the home state, then don't claim them as earnings in the state they actually play out of. Eventually it ends up evening out. The taxes not paid by the home team players for half of their games are replaced by the taxes paid by the visiting teams players.

Here's a concept... why don't we just cut Pet Projects, Overruns and wasteful Bloated Bureaucracy and reduce taxes across the board instead of looking at new and creative ways to "equalize" this country.

Well unfortunately there's this tax and spend party in control for one more year. I was just trying to be bi-partisan.

Do a little research and tell me what race of people predominantly take advantage of government programs in this country. Then STFU

Stupid idea, they're no different than business travelers. Imagine a world where you live in NYC but have to pay tax on a week's salary in California if you take a business trip there.

However the states they work (play) in should be collecting income tax from them already.

You guys just don't get it...you work yourself giddy over *stoopid* ideas that the "left will love" while having no real clue how "the left" actually thinks. Have at it though.

I know how the left thinks and it makes me sick-

You *think* you know how the left thinks and it makes you sick.

There is a large difference between your perception and reality. That is obvious from your posts and comments.

One thing the fucking idiots like you forget is that fundamentally the average person on "the left" has the same fundamental goal as the average person on "the right" - which is to do what is best for the country. The differences is in 1) what we think is best and 2) how we think we should get there.

For example you idiot douchebags continually state that "the left" likes taxes and likes to tax people - that taxing people is the END, not a means to get to an end. That is just idiotic. The difference is that we recognize you can't keep not paying for things you want to get done - you'd apparently prefer to keep piling on the deficits. Just one example of how you "know" how the left thinks.

It is lunch time BJ - Don't you have a buffett to go terrorize? (I was going to leave that out but you started with the "fucking idiots thing- so be it)

You fucks have no common sense when it comes to your entitlement thinking and enabling others to feel entitled; wanting to distribute money to lazy fucks who feel entitled to it without working as hard or as smart as others. Bleeding heart compassion is not what creates opportunity or INCENTIVE for those who want to WORK to succeed in this land of OPPORTUNITY, Not the "land of GUARANTEE you will have a house even if your stupid". The abuse of the dumb ass gov programs your ilk starts is staggering, I know, your ilk likes to call them "unintended consequences". Yet you never seem to learn from them.

Pretty well sums up most of your posts. Going to blame this on early Holiday drinking?

Chuck coined the term as far as I know- From his own mouth- concerning the abuse of public housing. What does pointing out the obvious that even your ilk recogonize have to do with drinking?

almost incoherent (often racist, always partisan) rantings?
