You sir are right! I can tell you first hand your state taxes go by where you claim residence. This is why the majority of NFL, MLB, players claim Florida or Texas. For example I am a airline pilot, I am based in a state that has a state income tax, I am a Florida resident and I claim this on my tax info. I do not pay state income tax, state income tax is determined by residence not where you work.

Actually that isn't correct. My parents and grandparents live in North Dakota and spend their winter's in Florida. To be able to claim residency in a state while living/working in another you must be able to prove that you spend over half of the year in the state which you want to claim residency. Therefore, because my parents and grand parents only spend between 3-4 months of the year living in Florida they are unable to claim residency in Florida and must claim residency in North Dakota on their taxes.

Many athletes have had to pay back taxes because they try to claim the state of Florida as a residency while not spending more than six months of the year living there. If you recall there is a certain FS from Arizona whom many people on this site are clamoring for us to sign if he becomes a FA that just went through having to pay $2 million in back taxes because of this oversight.

Not up here in Minnesota, where unfortunately we pay higher state taxes than 85% of the country. Yet somehow our state budget is still in the red. Who would have thought that after Jesse Ventura decided not to be our governor anymore that our state's fiscal status would go down the sh*tter.

nevada needs a state tax. i know. i can't believe i'm saying this, but our schools rank 50th in the country and 48th on spending for the schools. A lotto would be great if the casino's were greedy as hell. I guess private school is the only answer for my baby when she gets old enough for it.

We can Cut Channing and Use of that money much better...

Why the **** would we do that? Channing Crowder is basically the run stuffing ILB, while Karlos Dansby is the coverage type we need. If any ILB on the Fins is going to be cut, it's going to be Reggie Torbor and his three million dollar backup salary.

Implement a flat tax or the Fair Tax and the taxes won't nearly suck as much.

Fair Tax, baby, the Fair Tax. That way 'we' control when we want to give ourselves a tax break. :up: Go Keyes and Huckabee for being candidates that are standing in the gap for this. :bowdown:

Which also sucks, because the way the system is currently, even though you are coming out of your pocket to pay for the school of your choice, which in that case would be the private school....the federal government is still going to tax 'you' anyways to pay for othe people's kids public schools.:bobdole:

I'm cool with public schools, but as a public 'option'. If we don't want it, then we shouldn't have to pay for it. Same thing with this health care debate. I wouldn't have a problem with a public 'option', but 'only' IF when I don't want it and want my own health insurance, that I don't still have to pay for it out of my taxes if I 'choose' to go with my own insurance. But the federal government don't want to allow that either. They want their cake and eat it too. :crazy:

That is exactly what a want too! Get greedy and get both the vet and a young Fin with loads of potential. Now if Wake can learn how to play the run this D would be something fierce. Cautiously optimistic about his improvement in that department.
