Not much tax news this week. But as I always say, some BUZZ is better than no BUZZ.
* FORBES.COM’s Tax Girl Kelly Phillips Erb reports “Reality TV Stars Todd & Julie Chrisley Hit With Multiple Charges, Including Tax Evasion”.
No surprise here. Nobody ever said reality tv “stars” had any
morals, ethics, honesty, or even intelligence.
Actually, a lack of these qualities appears to be a requirement for the “position”.
Ever since ads for “Chrisley Knows Best”, which Kelly’s
post proves to be an untrue title statement, first appeared I have been asking who this
self-absorbed moron Chrisley was and why anyone would give a rat’s hind
quarters about him or his family. Kelly’s
piece does nothing to answer my questions.
Will a subsequent season of idiot Chrisley’s tv show
be filmed in prison?
Want to know what I think about what is erroneously
referred to as “reality tv”? Check out
my BOBSERVATIONS post “Reality (TV) Sucks”.
* Speaking of my BOBSERVATIONS blog, I have a new
post about remembering Woodstock on its 50th anniversary. Click here to check it out – and please share
with your friends and family.
* The TAX FOUNDATION asks, and answers, the question “Does Your State Have a Marriage Penalty?”.
New Jersey = yes (it is very often better for married
couples to file a separate NJ state income tax return)
Pennsylvania = no (all income is taxed at a flat rate
and there are no exemptions)
New York = yes
THE FINAL WORD
THE FINAL WORD
When
will people understand that abortion rights, or same-sex marriage, is NOT a
conservative issue – it is a religious issue.
Conservative
philosophy believes that the government should have minimal involvement in the
personal and business life of the individual citizen. A major tenant of
conservatism is to protect & maximize individual rights. The religious
right and so-called “evangelicals” want the government to tell individuals how
to live their lives by legislating the specific religious beliefs of a specific
sect or Christianity.
Evangelicals
and the religious right are NOT conservatives.
