Some Ill-Informed

Slap A Sales Tax On

The majority of states repealed their gross receipts taxes in the 1920s and 1930s and replaced them with retail sales taxes, but in the last two years, states have begun to reinvestigate gross receipts taxes.

States have been down this road before. In the mid-2000s, several states explored adding gross receipts taxes. Michigan, New Jersey, and Kentucky added gross receipts taxes, but quickly repealed them due to their economic consequences.

The experience in Michigan, New Jersey, Kentucky & Indiana reveal how gross receipts taxes have a negative impact on the economy. Indiana demonstrates how gross receipts taxes are outmoded, can tax different industries at varying effective rates, and discourage business; New Jersey demonstrates how disproportionate and arbitrary the tax can be, which places an unfair burden on businesses; Kentucky’s tax shows how some businesses are placed at a disadvantage compared to others and that investment levels dampen; and Michigan provides evidence that gross receipts taxes add layers of tax complexity that decrease competitiveness.

Competitive Fee Structure

 

… but if you are looking for the cheapest fees, or obsessing about your correct pronouns or global warming/white privilege B.S., or unable to make up your mind as to whether you are a man or a woman, you would be so much happier working with someone else…

… in addition, due to an extremely hectic schedule, only serious inquiries may expect a response …

New tax clients are expected to provide copies of their last 3 years of tax returns and provide permission to contact prior accountant to resolve any issues, if necessary.

 

Regretfully, I am unable to accept new clients who have unfiled prior-year’s tax returns, who are not current with all prior tax obligations, are involved in any marijuana-related business ventures, use marijuana or illegal drugs, have any income from gambling, invest in cryptocurrency, are experiencing extreme financial difficulties, are personal-injury attorneys, in the construction industry or are in the country illegally. Newly formed businesses are frowned upon as well.

 

Though not required, supporters of President Donald J. Trump, Governor Kevin Stitt, the National Rifle Association & clients who are alpha males & females, ethical, hard-working, cheerful, optimistic and NOT easily offended are generally preferred.

 

Absolutely NO LAZY, TREE-HUGGING, CRITICAL RACE THEORY PROMOTING, ECONOMICALLY ILLITERATE,  GODLESS, RIOTING, KNEELING, CENSORING, RACIALLY & GENDER OBSESSED, DR. SEUSS BOOK-BANNING, FIREARM CONFISCATING,  BIG GOVERNMENT SOCIALISTS allowed beyond the front door, however!

Due to the alleged gang activity and drug dealing at the nearby Chelsea Manor Apts. & 7-11 Convenience Store, I would personally recommend "packing some heat" while in this area (and perhaps Penn Square Mall as well). Some believe the OKC Police Dept. has become too constrained and are hesitant to confront these gangbangers and put them behind bars where they rightfully belong. "Talk on the Street" seems to be that this emanates from an extremely weak & naive Mayor who purportedly suffers from a severe case of "Low T," a weak City Manager, a new, effeminate-looking Police Chief, who refuses to enforce our nation's immigration laws & a Ward 6 Council Girl who took her Oath Of Office using a book on Marxism.

Everything that Mayor David “Pajama Boy” Holt & Police Chief “Wily” Wade Gourley need to know to improve law enforcement in OKC is in this book…if only they had some courage...
