July Developments – Part I – I Hate Whistleblowing

We need to go back to December 14, 2012 when it is generally believed that twenty children and six adults were killed by a school shooter at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT. In February 2022 Remington Arms manufacturer of the rifle used in the shooting reached a $73 million settlement with the families of nine of the victims.

Well now, it seems likely that the families would have excluded that income under Section 104.  According to Fetzer they are not entitled to the 104 exclusion, because nobody was actually killed at Sandy Hook. He has a book on the subject.

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
