As far as I can tell, so long as an individual is not double-taxed, there should be no problem with this. Seems only fair that the State the employer resides in should collect taxes for, indirectly, providing the work. The State the worker resides in should have a right to collect property and related taxes; but if they did not, indirectly, provide the source of income, they should not be able to claim income taxes.
States should legislate in such a way that they are good places to live AND good places to operate industry. "Economic justice" and a level playing field in the marketplace is maybe the best way to achieve this. Now, if this could be translated into international law... but I digress. Anyway, if individuals ARE double-taxed, then this would be going against the undeniable trend of distributed commerce, and would not hold up in the long-run. In the short run, our economy would suffer the set-back for a poor choice. The question is, do we as a country really want to behave economically like a pre-EU Europe, or are we faster than that? -Louis Louis Mezo LogicSynthesis Tel: 240.498.8951 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.logicsynthesis.com -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Breeman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 12:52 PM To: CF-Jobs-Talk Subject: Re: (NY) Court rules telecommuter must pay taxes Mis-pasted: > > Court rules telecommuter must pay taxes > http://tinyurl.com/4993u > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
