Who knows the difference between progressive taxation and legitimate taxation?
Q. I have noticed that on a lot of questions about taxes answerers confuse taxation for legitimate (constitutionally enumerated) purposes such as building and maintainging roads and the military with taxation for progressive purposes (unconstitutional social welfare programs). There is a difference and I am wondering how many people understand that difference. Social Welfare Programs are all programs which redistribute wealth or provide charity with taxpayer money. This includes all of what most people consider welfare programs, Education Funding, Social Security, Grants to businesses or individuals except as part of a legitimate work contract, etc.

A. I do the fact is the states fund the building and maintaining of roads with the state tax on gas. the states where intended to be run independly of the federal government, but the federal government has taken enormous power from the states by giving the states federal money (the evil 16th amendment) thus the states must do what the feds want or the feds pull the money

Asked by DamickaB - Mon Jun 22 18:37:52 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The 16th amendment allowed the Federal government to tax a person based on their income. It is a progressive tax meaning that the more you make the more you pay. In the Constitution it was stated that all states and people in those states had to be taxed equally. This made the Income tax illegal. The 16th amendment changed that. The propose of the tax was to tax the extremely wealthy "robber barons" of that period. It was a part of the progressive Amendments added to the constitution in the early 20th century. The others were: a. 17th amendment-- direct popular election of US Senators. b. 18th amendment--prohibition of making/selling alcohol. c. 19th amendment-- gave women the right to vote.

A. Interest is fully taxable at ordinary income rates (same as wages). Dividends are either regular or qualified. Regular dividends are taxed at ordinary income rates. Qualified dividends are taxed the same as long term capital gains. For 2008, 2009 and 2010, if you total income is within the 10 and 15% tax brackets, the rate for qualified dividends is ZERO. If your income is in the 25% or higher tax bracket, they are taxed at 15%.

Q. Randy Barnett, a constitutional expert at Georgetown Law School, said the federal government has never used its power of taxation in such a way, to compel people to buy a product from private companies.

Taxation on work done for Canadian Client?
Q. Hi Everyone, I currently live in PA and have a fulltime job. However, I have just recently starting doing freelance website work for a company in Canada. I was wondering what the tax implications for the money earned from this work would be? I am usually paid through PayPal, but on larger jobs I am mailed a check. Anyone have any idea how taxation works on this? Do I just file a schedule-c and list this as additional income (under my dba), or something else? I assume I do have to report it in one way or another :) Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

A. It's taxed as self-employment income. File Schedule C or C-EZ with your return, along with Schedule SE. How you get paid is irrelevant to the tax issues at hand. But do keep in mind that the US and Canada do share tax information on each others citizens.
