10 reasons to never get a job

I won't plagerize Steve Pavlina; his are GREAT reasons - but I have my own.

Also, some of his *facts* are wrong; misinformed...but he is one of the most read peeps online.

=====================

Steve says the USA is the most heavily taxed...blaa blaa blaa; and he is dead wrong about that one. He really needs to bone up on his facts (when he uses them) - mainly he is simply entertaining to read).

#1 - taxation without representation! - WHY would you work to pay the government 55% of what you make????? WHY?

And what is Steve's alternative to getting a job? He doesn't have a legal one. He says be self-employed - geee...last time I looked you still need to pay taxes on self-employed income. I DON'T GET YOU STEVE.

What's the alternative to getting a job? The alternative is to remain happily jobless for life and to generate income through other means. <---THAT is what he says - the most widely read dude online.

OK - so---other ways to generate income.

#1 - play your violin on the street and have people throw money into a hat.

(But THAT's TAXABLE)

#2 - pretend to be blind and sit on the street and have people throw money into a cup.

(But THAT's TAXABLE)

#3 - You really ARE blind and sit on the street corner and have peoplke throw money at you.

(But that's TAXABLE)

#4 - ASK for money from passers-by. Also known as Begging. I am going to the IRS site right after this to determine if this is ALSO taxable. I know begging is ILLEGAL in many states. So - maybe you can just go to jail instead and they can feed and cloth and shelter you.

#5 - If you still have a home by this point (a lot of people just recently became homeless according to CNN) - have a garage sale. Sell everything you have that you can't live without - (not your sleeping bag) and move into the nearest park (oh, but you CAN'T- that's illegal too!) better make that under a bridge....

(IS THAT TAXABLE????)

BUT -- if you don't have an ADDRESS - how is the IRS ever going to find you to collect those pennies that you may or may no owe them -- and if THEY owe YOU money - well....then you have nothing to worry about. Because they don't WANT to know where to send the check if they owe you money.

See, if you owe The IRS money - they charge you HUGE interest and will throw you in jail if you don't pay up for longer (I kid you NOT) than Murder!! Tax evasion holds a longer prison term than murder.

But hay - if they owe YOU money - they don't WANT to know your address. AND they do NOT pay YOU interest on the money they owe to You!! How did THAT happen? You people call that a democracy??

I hope you are aware that this thing called INCOME TAX was installed during WWII as a TEMPORARY measure!!!!! It was NOT supposed to be permanent.

Guess the jokes on all you peeps in the USA. And all that money going to your war; no free health care, no books for school, no NADA for the people.

Want to move to France!? The statute of liberty needs a sign that says

"YOU WANT A PIECE A ME?" <---QUOTE BY ROBIN WILLIAMS

I think it should add send me your money and stay home! We want your cash, not YOU!

Extra Bonus #6 - sell your body. OH, but that is also illegal in most states; and ALSO taxable in the ones it isn't. So, you don't own your own body - your government does!!

So Steve, PLEASE explain to me how you make your money without having a taxable job! PLEASE!!!!!!

I say move to Canada. At least there you can pitch a tent and not get arrested.

Is ebay taxable????????

If I sell my underpants on ebay - does the government want a piece? :}

And if they do; which piece do they want?

I really want to know; IS EBAY INCOME TAXABLE? Like a hugemongeous garage-sale...Is it? Anyone??
