firstly, i forgot about that after speaking to Rob on MSN, but tis done

Not causing a fight or anything but....


Living here its just extremely different to where you live.

I win $65k, i pay nothing. If JD wins $65k, he pays $15,500??? Bear in mind we all live on the same earth thats alot to just "give away". Yes he is helping the country by paying taxes, as do i when i work in real life, but thats just wrong.

What im saying is by all means tax the professional gamblers, people who dont go out at all and do any manual labour, but to tax a guy of 18/19 who is in college studying, and plays poker for fun is beyond me. I said "fun" because of JDs previous post in one of his threads about not wanting to play poker for a living, it was helping him get through college.

Just my from a different perspective, im not telling him to not pay it or whatever
