House passes Big, Beautiful Bill

[Moonglow]

Why don't Democrats want to cut waiters a break??

Why should waiters get a break but not engineers?

 

[Moonglow]

Free shit like gubment workers get you mean?

Like Trump gets?

Why are you talking like I talk about the Rich?
See the rich are the Democrats primary target.

When Trump announced this change to tax law, I also asked that same question.

Democrats however treat the waiters like they treat the rich. Amazing spin by Democrats.

Like every other "identity group" gets. Free shit.

Because that's the kind of government they want. A government that hands out benes to the people who deserve it, and their lobbyists.

Does that mean that all CEOs will now only accept tips as income?

Why do you ask questions and not expect replies?

I have hired so many workers that if you study the law, you will find out.

Tips are not wages. Tips are not a salary. You mix up the serious issues with chit chat.

Tips as Income: A Guide for Tipped Employees
Tips are considered income and are subject to federal income tax, as well as Social Security and Medicare taxes. Here's a breakdown of what you need to know as a tipped employee:
1. What are Tips?

• Tips are optional payments made by customers to employees for services rendered.
• Cash tips include:
  • Direct payments from customers.
  • Charged tips (e.g., credit card tips) distributed by your employer.
  • Tips received from other employees through tip-sharing arrangements.
• Noncash tips include: tickets, passes, or other items of value.

I did not mention income. Wages are income. Tip are income. Wages are paid by the employer and that is the difference.

It is all considered income, wages, ie, taxable benefits etc, etc, etc..Just like hourly wages.

I know that. I paid a lot of wages. The discussion is not about that. Engineers also get wages.

I read the bill has a provision to allow suppressors for sale without excessive fee or government checks. Sounds good to me. Hopefully it stays in the final version.

it squeaked thru by 1 vote. yep, that's all that is needed, but i don't think the senate will oblige.

Stands to reason.

The Senate tends to be a bit more, uh, serious. Comparitively, anyway.
