Ok, I need clarification on the new c.v. standards. I list that summer at the Rockland County Clerk's Office, clearly. What about the 3 days I worked at the Highway Dept. before they fired me? And, uh, that one day I managed at the deli before refusing to "ever go near that dumpster again"?

Greetings, new law prof followers who write about normal non-boring things! I write about taxes (& random other things - yay tenure). Today's big internet tax controversy is about the Billionaire Minimum Income Tax. Which, as it happens, @davidgamage.bsky.social & I helped to write. 1/a few

It's too bad that bsky is still pretty quiet but the positive side of that is I can repost the heck out of NK-trolling content and no one will know. Why, you ask, troll NK? Did I take it personally when he filed an amicus brief trying to blow up the tax system? Yes, yes, I did.

Both former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris have called for an end to taxes on tips, though many cite that tipped workers are often not subject to federal taxes due to low income. What do you think? https://theonion.com/trump-harris-both-call-for-no-tax-on-tips/

Ok, my #Moore takeaways. 1. Most of the stuff the income tax does today is probably ok. Yay, let's take our Ws where we can find them. 2. Kav & the Chief def are not promising to uphold a mark-to-market tax. Indeed, they are not saying anything so loudly that probably the opposite is true.

Does your conference come with a boat ride? No? You are doing it wrong.

Don't know why people say there aren't enough summer holidays when we are about to celebrate Tax Workshop Weekend ... this year co-locating the Association of Mid-career Tax scholars (AMT) and the Experienced in Tax Conference (EITC). It's like when Passover and Easter are on the same day, people.
