Mobile Workforce Act Good Idea But May Need More Limits
I tried to imagine what it was like for somebody who was more peripatetic than I. It made me a little less of envious of the people with mysterious functions who did not have to worry about client service and billing and collection who wandered the nation inspiring us to apply the leverage model and fill in the white space.
It also made me happy that most of my away-from-home work was in Central Florida, where you have a right to carry and stand your ground and no stinking state income tax. I don’t carry and I am sure that I would run like hell, but one more state income tax return might have pushed CV past the tipping point.
SPLC Calls Family Research Council Hate Group – Should IRS Take Action?
The other very broad issue is whether the organization is meeting the definition that makes it exempt. Is it really educational? Is it engaging in politics? Is it really a church? You could probably come up with a worse way than having an accountant heavy organization making those determinations, but it might take you a while.
It’s not just because an accounting degree is a terrible education for that purpose. It’s also a cultural problem. If you task a group of accountants with collecting $2.5 trillion dollars, do you really expect them to take soft stuff that has only a remote potential for bringing in more money very seriously?

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.
