Roughly what happened:
- A few days ago, Bovino promised something big
- ICE was being brutal, but not stopping the protests or the hunger strike inside the concentration camps
- Bovino sent in the Proud Boys, but the protesters ran them off
- Gov. Sherrill sent in the state police, who attacked the protesters, including those in “free speech zones”
That’s why I said they need to get creative.
What’s stopping a state government from levying a 100% state income tax on any citizens of said state that work at a concentration camp?
Besides the Supreme Court, I guess… Still worth a shot imo
But they have no motivation to be creative. And it wouldn’t even take the supreme court. Federal District court would toss it instantly. That said, what makes you think the people who work there are even residents of that state. They probably only work there a few months before they are shuffled around to another facility. Non-resident taxes can be pretty complicated.
