    Did Everybody Quit at This Casino

    Do the Indian nations get unemployment from the federal government?

    That $600/week is pretty nice TBH.

    To be honest, $600/week is not that much money. It should at least be double that amount per week.

    It’s 600*52. $31200. I don’t imagine you’d have to pay tax on that. That’s a lot of money for a lot of people. More than minium wage.

    I am not advocating to stay on unemployment, one way or another. If I was at-risk population, and I still can get 600/week. I’d think twice when and if I am going back to work.

    Unemployment benefits are taxable. I haven't read about a carve-out for these special funds.

    Also, don't forget where this casino is located. It's in the middle of nowhere, so COL should be dirt cheap.

    Getting on this thread is tempting but risks getting banned by Norm for “politics”. One just has to see where the money is going. One example..(I have many such examples

    You and I pay taxes, received $1200, Evangelican churches that don’t pay any taxes got $7.3 Billion

    Don't let anyone fool you into believing government handouts or furlough schemes are free money lol. Everybody will have to pay in the end.

    it's a myth that the rich aren't heavily taxed
    as you can see from the image the 3rd from the highest are paying 32% and the highest are paying 37% in Federal taxes
    when you consider what many also owe to their States a lot of them are losing around 50% of their income to taxes - ouch
    and then there are the State taxes on the luxury items they purchase
    you could argue that they should pay even more tax - the counter argument is that at some point if they're taxed so heavily they will stop investing and earning - they will limit their productive activities and relax with what they've already earned - they will become less motivated
    of course, many seek to and successfully do avoid paying taxes - that is usually thru investment which also benefits the economy
    I don't really like coming across as a cheerleader for wealthy people - but facts are facts

    Tax Planning, creating Tax avoidance, not Tax evasion, can be a powerful tool for the small businessman. If any Non employee Canucks out there, especially incorporated Canucks want some ideas, let me know. I capture probably 90-95% of what’s available with virtually no effort. For those wanting 100% capture, you’re being foolish because of expense, effort, aggravation etc.

    I’m currently writing this from my satellite Starbucks office, where just this morning, I’ve likely spend 1/2 hour on business emails.

    Hey Freightman, where did drunk's quoted post come from? Was it deleted after you quoted it?

    BTW, does your satellite office look anything like this one:

    Drunk must have deleted it, nothing controversial about it, certainly really sift in the political front - and given inconsistent rule enforcement, should have flown by with no problem. Of course, I could be wrong.

    No, my Starbucks satellite us far more desirable appearance wise.

    I saw that. What I didn’t look at was the logo. Is that Arabic type wording from an American city. Doesn’t really matter where. The reason I ask is that it would become an interesting legal issue. Starbucks would certainly register their name in any country they had a presence - and unless the look a like started their business (not likely), Starbucks would almost certainly pursue legal remedies.

    Seems to me that McDonalds, in the early years when they were expanding at a geometric rate, could not open in a particular US state. An existing Hamburger small chain, had operated for a very long time under the name of NcDonalds. Seems to me the chain eventually received a very good price for the sale if shares - at least as the story was told to me.
