Disgusting! I recall Ole Jimmy whining about waiters (men) in exclusive restaurants in Manhattan working without wages because the tips were so high, while he abused waitresses (women) who slung hash in neighborhood diners. Although I had never been a waitress, I knew and he knew that 99% of waiters/waitresses were lucky to make $5.00 per shift in tips. When Carter took office, minimum wage was only $2.30 per hour.
An estimated 50,000 patriots suffered 100+ degree heat on Sunday to attend a Trump Rally in a park outside Las Vegas. "So this is the first time I've said this, and for those hotel workers and people that get tips you're going to be very happy because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips people (are) making." Trump told the crowd.
BIGGEST DANGER TO AMERICANS IS WHEN DEMOCRATS HAVE US HOUSE, US SENATE & WHITE HOUSE
Tips first became taxable during the Carter Administration when the IRS began requiring employees earning $20 per month in tips to keep records of such tips. For the first time, workers who got tips from their customers were required to keep a daily record of their tips and give it to their employer. Employers were then required to withhold income, Medicare & Social Security taxes on tips. Such tips must be included as income on the workers’ tax returns.
Keeping track of tips began increasingly burdensome for both employees and employers as the IRS, from time to time, changed the rules about how tips were to be accounted for and reported. It is just one more way the Deep State keeps its foot on the necks of hard-working Americans and needs to be abolished.
Democrats controlled the House, Senate & White House for Jimmy’s entire four years: January 1977 to January 1981. Senator Joe Biden voted “yes” to tax tips. What is it about Democrat politicians that makes them so greedy? They pretend to care about the little guy & gal yet it is the little guy & gal they abuse the most.
FAKE biden never met a tax he didn't LOVE. I was appalled at the TAX on SOCIAL SECURITY! Talk about RIPPING PEOPLE OFF! That guy is SO CHEAP, TOO! He constantly eats ice cream in front of the reporters and other people (not that there are any interested in seeing him outside the WH) and he NEVER BUYS ANYONE AN ICE CREAM! On the other hand, Trump buys EVERYONE in whatever JAM-PACKED restaurant he goes into, Pizzas and whatever they are serving! DJT is BEYOND Generous--WITH HIS OWN MONEY EVERY TIME! biden is a CHEAT and CHEAP and, like an old friend of mine used to say: "He's tighter than a fishes BUM; and that's WATERTIGHT!" The difference is STARK! One LOVES the PEOPLE; and the other HATES EVERYONE--but he WANTS ALL OF YOUR MONEY AND HE IS NOT ABOVE TAKING IT!
When do we all understand that none of these problems created by openly-crooked politicians will never be solved in the courts, or in the voting booth?
