An example of just how screwed up taxes can be...Football fact!

[Bombur]

Ahhhh. The refuge of the intellectual moron – go Google it yourself…

IOW, prove my point for me because I can’t.

He still has yet to even articulate his actual point. I don’t see why he thinks that others should prove a point for him that he can’t even make in full.

His salary doesn't really matter because everyone knows even without google that he is getting paid a lot more than $46K a game or whatever the number from the article was.

The state of New Jersey would disagree. that's exactly what's he's getting paid to play that game at MetLife stadium.

Still looking for that math correction...

Yes the state of NJ clearly determined his income for the game and the practice days there is around $46K like you said.

If that's your "correction" you have, once again failed miserably. "ROFL" is just not a cogent retort.

Sorry, I'm going with Forbes.

Little tip. Even your stupid article didn't make the claim you just did. In fact the article went to great lengths to show that NJ didn't consider his income to be $46K.

 

[kwc57]

He worked there.

I am sure your state works the same way.

BTW are you on drugs?

Negative. For a while, I was part of my company's professional services team where our customers would contract to have us come to their location to work on special projects. I live in Oklahoma. I spent 10 months working in Vermont. I paid my taxes in Oklahoma, not Vermont. You really need to start supporting your arguments with a little knowledge and fact instead of your personal opinion.

Individual Income Taxes

HTH

Fuck em. That was 1999 - 2000. They are more than welcome to come get me.

 

[kwc57]

How many pages does this thread really need before you admit the math is wrong?

I'll admit Forbes got the math wrong when you provide the slightest bit of evidence of that being the case.

Thus far, all we've gotten is "because you say so" and that retort means nothing.

The floor is yours. Come on, thrill us with your acumen...

AFAIK this is the 4th time I have pointed this out.

He gets paid more than $46K a game.

Not in NJ moron.

Looking for that math correction...where is it...anywhere? Nope, nothing.

Ah well, may this dolt doesn't know more about tax laws than Forbes...

Do I need to tell you the problem 5 times? 6? 7?

How many times can I tell you the problem with the math and still have you claim I have not told you the problem with the math?

PM gets paid more per game than the article calculated. The article only used his bonus for playing the game. The state of NJ tax department recognizes this and calculates his tax liability based on the compensation he received as per his contract and the work stipulated therein.

Or in short, he gets paid more than $46K per game.

 

[boilermaker55]

Maybe this isn't as cut and dried as it seems.
The statement is quite generic to taxes.
"Claims that the NFL is using a tax exemption to avoid paying the tax due on these revenues are simply misinformed. The confusion arises from the fact that there is one small part of the NFL, unrelated to all this business activity, that is tax-exempt: the NFL League Office. The league office is the administrative and organizational arm of the NFL and does things like write the rules of the game, hire referees, run the college draft, negotiate the collective bargaining agreement with the players, conduct player safety research, and run youth football programs."
[ Trade associations are nonprofit organizations. They don’t engage in any business activity. As a result, they are exempt from being taxed under section 501(c)(6) of the federal tax code. (Charities are exempt under section 501(c)(3); the NFL League Office has never claimed to be a charity.]

That's not enough for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. He wants to nearly triple the league's revenues to $25 billion by 2027—a mind-bogglingly large number. But here's an even more shocking fact: The NFL pays nothing in taxes on all those revenues. Not a nickel. And now the anti-corruption organization Rootstrikers wants to put an end to the NFL's free ride.

Over the weekend, Rootstrikers blasted out an email urging people to sign a petition in support of Sen. Tom Coburn's (R-Okla.) PRO Sports Act, which would ban big sports leagues from receiving tax-exempt status. "You know the NFL as the National Football League," says the Rootstrikers email. "But the IRS knows them better as the Nonprofit Football League—that's because the NFL has not paid any taxes since 1966 and average Americans are left paying higher taxes to make up for that lost revenue. Senator [Tom] Coburn is trying to change that, and we support his endeavor." Coburn's bill would ban pro sports leagues with more than $10 million in revenue from receiving tax-exempt status.

For the, what is it? 5th, 6th, 7th time...NOT IN NEW JERSEY HE DOESN'T.

What he makes in other states is of no consequence. If he earns the $46k in NJ, he may be taxes at over 100% of what he earned in that state.

That you're cool with that speaks VOLUMES about you.

He is working in NJ based on his contract which is worth more than $46K per game.

That is the 7th time in case you were counting.

Makes no damn difference. Anything he earns from his contract is NOT earned out of the state of NJ. All NJ knows is that his income in NJ is 46k...and they're taking it all, and then some. Call it a bonus, whatever...no one should be taxed at over 100% of any form of income in a particular state.

The work he is doing in NJ was stipulated in his contract.

He is not being taxed over 100%.

Your math is wrong.

Matters not. Whatever he's being paid out of Colorado will be taxed by Colorado. His earnings for playing in the Superbowl...call it a bonus, will be taxed by NJ...at over 100%. No one should be taxed at over 100% for any portion of their earnings, however categorized.

He is not being taxed over 100%.

For his NJ earnings, they most certainly are.

Your math is wrong.

Your logic is flawed.

And you still haven't got it right.

Sorry, still going with Forbes on this one.

Whether he got a bonus or not he was still getting paid to play in the super bowl per his contract. The bonus is a red herring that has confused you horribly.

The state of NJ is taxing him because he is working in NJ and getting paid a lot of money to work in NJ. He is paid more than $46K a game.

#9 I think, and you still don't understand basic math. tsk tsk.

So you go from "prove my point yourself" to "it doesn't actually matter." You're an idiot.

WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK! You getting this yet? WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK, WHACK! How about now? Playoff shares have nothing to do with a player's regular-season salary! Is this getting through that thick skull yet?

Bombur is a socialist sack of shit like the jackass running France into the ground right now.

Some professional soccer players and teams might leave France if they are paying over 75% in taxes on their income, yet this scumbag Bombur thinks "New Jersey" can tax a football player over 100%....
