Why isn't Slow Joe paying his fair share?

[Ben_Natuf]

so far… nothing.

of crimes were commited, prosecute.

same for joe. which looks much worse.

[Paul_Do]

@Ben_Natuf

if you can prove that, prosecute fred.

of course you can’t. its just what you choose to believe

Are you serious?

[Jezcoe]

@Ben_Natuf

thats just not true.

i already showed you the statement from the ny official who said it was

and, an audit is an investigation.

The IRS never investigated it.

The State of NY could be investigating it… but honestly they probably aren’t.

They are 100% investigating other Trump shenanigans like 40 Wall Street

That one is a little more exciting. That one could include loan, tax and securities fraud.

[Ben_Natuf]

an audit is an investigation. the irs is all over it

The IRS doesn’t really go after rich people.

They go after poor people.

It’s much easier.

[Ben_Natuf]

lol… okay.

must explain why they haven’t asked joe about his speaking fees or where that 10% ends up

I don’t make excuses for Biden.

His tax avoidance activities should be investigated and he should make the government whole.

[Ben_Natuf]

tax evasion isn’t squared by making them whole. some jail time would be in order

If there were crimes he wouldn’t have released returns. Come on this is ridiculous after cons stance on trump.

Not necessarily.

Depends on the intent of the crime.

I don’t see this rising to jail time.

Nor do I see Trump’s tax avoidance rising to jail time…just make the government whole.

This is one of the reasons this thing with Biden is not going to go anywhere.

I do find the new found concern about tax evasion to be humorous.

There is nothing there, biden has been running for president for decades.

[Ben_Natuf]

lol. what a silly excuse.

you think he reported the 10%. the whole point of laundering it through all those banks and it landing in the camans is to not declare it.

my stance on trump is simple, investigate away. so far, all the investigations have netted zip.

now, lets also investigate biden. plenty there to look at. if it nets zip, oh well, it nets zip.

[Ben_Natuf]

and he’s been crooked for decades.

[PeterGriffin]

I would have thought it would take a little bit longer than a few months for Trumpies to crank up the house organ around “bUt wHaT abOuT bIdEnS tAxEs?!1!” But here we are.

[Ben_Natuf]

tax avoidance and tax evasion are not the same thing.

trump may be guilty of tax avoidance by misreporting income or using valuations he should not have. for that they tell you you can’t claim it that way and you pay them what they say you owe.

the same goes for joe’s speaking fees.

the 10% for the big guy is a completely different matter.

[PeterGriffin]

@Ben_Natuf

of tax avoidance by misreporting income or using valuations he should not have.

That’s tax evasion.

Tax avoidance is structuring your assets around tax laws, legally.

It is either insulating or pathetic. Either they are not actually serious and trolling, think they are interacting with people with the intellectual ability of goldfish or they themselves have that level cognitive ability.

[Ben_Natuf]

if you report the income one way and it should have been reported another, thats just an honest mistake due to a complicated tax code. like say, reporting speaking fees as corporate income instead of personal income, if you use a valuation thats favorable to you and they say you should have used this other one, thats just a difference of opinion (which they win). in either case, its settled by paying what they said you owed instead of what you thought you owed.

[Ben_Natuf]

so, if anyone sees things other than the way you do…

arrogance should be a deserved trait… you don’t.
