Stelly Tax Plan
How many of y'all were affected by this scheme. Should it be repealed?

It's my understanding that even Victor Stelly no longer supports the Stelly plan although I can't seem to put my hands on a link confirming that rumor.

I was up until a point I wasn't aware of, but I recently noticed and talked about it with my dad just the other day, but I haven't even seen any 0% tax cut on food or anything like it said it would do, so I see no use for it unless it's going to be enforced.

enforced
Oh it's enforced, just wait until you start paying taxes. Don't worry about itemized deduction's or having children you'll pay for that too. OH, by the way you can deduct for some expenses, up to $25.00. That is really generous.

That's pretty interesting. Do you also have a full-time job and pay income taxes or are you complaining that you no longer get a tax break at the expense of the working class in this state? Remember, flipping burgers IS work, but if you get a full refund (I've even heard of returns larger than what was paid in thanks to EIC and such) then you are not "paying" taxes, but rather just going through the motions. |

Even while in school, I've worked many 40+ hour weeks, pay income taxes, and any other tax related to normal adult living, save property tax. I know that on my tax return I've received most of it back, but not all. How can I go about (even without a job I could do these) pay sales tax, prize tax, gas tax, and many others, but still not considered "paying taxes"? They just leave that kind of money unaccounted for? Or how much do they really know about who's purchasing what? I didn't say I was a huge money-maker or anything, just that I had at first actually gotten 0% tax on food items at grocery stores and restaurants; and if they're only giving those breaks to people who "pay taxes", nobody asked me in any restaurant "Hey, do you make enough money to pay full taxes to the government? Okay, here's your tax break". I just don't see how that's a way to reasonably select who gets these cuts.

The "problem" with the Stelly Plan is that is considers people making 40-50 thousand a year rich instead of middle class and thus, lot's of folks in Louisiana took a beating. Kid, accept the fact that you are 17, not nearly as smart as you think you are, and the least experienced in everything out of all the regular forum users here. Quote:
