Walter Von Moo Moo Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Any bill like this would have to be passed with exemptions for things like food, medical devices, clothing... Could you think of what else needs to be exempted? https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, he was kind of a dick. He’s not exempt from that. Edited January 28, 2023 by The_annoying_one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the tax doesn't include used items and so all the used jewelry on eBay goes tax free. And who knows how many times ingots change hands every week.

Raptorpat Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 CE isn't a blanket all-things-politics-and-politics-adjacent quarantine folder.
