Stormy Daniels On Employment Law

Stormy Daniels On Employment Law

As Katie explained it to me there are two common types of deals between clubs and dancers.  The dancer can just be getting cash tips and paying a fee to the club ($100 or $200 per night possibly).  In that case, there will be no reporting.  Technically, if the club is not a corporation, the dancer should be giving the club a 1099, but I doubt that ever happens.

In the other model, fees are paid by the patron to the club, which splits with the dancer and sends her a 1099.

In either event, the dancer is going home with cash every night.  Whereas, now, according to Katie she is waiting two weeks for a paycheck.

Then there is the matter of deductible expenses.  They don’t even mention 199A, but that would be another advantage of IC status.

On The Basis Of Sex: Watch The Other Lawyers

In his appeal to the Tax Court, Moritz wrote that if he had been a dutiful daughter he would have been allowed the deduction, but as a dutiful son, he was denied.  To be fair to the Tax Court, my blogging buddy Lew Taishoff who follows the Tax Court with an incredible intensity let me know that the Tax Court cannot overturn a statute on Constitutional grounds.  The mantra of the Tax Court is that it is a court of limited jurisdiction.  When it comes to the Code it follows Reilly’s First Law of Tax Planning – It is what it is.  Deal with it.

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. Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
