You must pay minimum wage, unless…
The wonderful Jan Helfeld, who in the past debated harry Ried whether taxes are voluntary or not, insist on an interview with Nancy Peloci to get an answer why her interns don’t deserve the same minimum wages she insist everybody else to pay. Unlike most interviewer Helfeld doesn’t move on when his questions are not being answered and the results are, to say the least, embarrassing.
I always thought that Peloci as an apparatchik, she is a political being that live and thrive on backdoor deals. But even I didn’t expect such low ability to form and protect an idea. And she is, together with the clown from the link above, the majority leaders - what a shame!
Now he knows
I guess that Wesley Snipes knows now that taxes aren’t really voluntary after all….
It isn’t only semantic
One would assume that the Senate Majority Leader must know that taxes aren’t voluntary. I only wonder why he insist taking this rather peculiar line of argument instead of arguing the supposed necessity or supposed benefits of wealth distribution. At least among the few blog reader I take it for granted that we are all in agreement that laws, and taxes are administrated and legitimized by laws, are not voluntary actions.
