Tea Party Patriots Inc Dodging Tax On E-mail Fees?
Of course, I just have the same education as an IRS revenue agent, so maybe there is something in the definitions that would exempt this or possibly TPP has enough other social welfare activity that it would still qualify. Regardless, I think there might be just a bit of concern about its 501(c)(4) status.
Since TPP does not appear to be a dark money group, I kind of wondered why the status was so important. Well, now, given the e-mail fees, there could be some serious money at stake. The best defense is a good offense. The persecution narrative might be a license to be aggressive.
IRS Will Not Tax Forfeited Jackpots Of Compulsive Gamblers
Well, in the interest of fighting gambling addiction, I offer this. The ruling was only on the program in one state and I don’t know which one. The program seems to be similar from state to state, but it is not identical. Subtle differences might make for different income tax answers. For example, the Indiana program indicates the forfeiture is in the “form of a fine”. In the Illinois program, the participant gets to decide which of the addiction services organizations the money goes to. So it might still be possible that in your state there would be a difference that would make you taxable on the forfeited jackpot. So stay out of those casinos.

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.
