IRS to Team USA Medalists: Pay Up!
The 554-member Team USA has descended upon Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to compete in the Olympic Games. As a reward for winning Gold, Silver, or Bronze, U.S. athletes receive a monetary reward. But the IRS still wants its share.
The U.S. Olympic Committee recognizes its medalists with $25,000 for gold, $15,000 for silver, and $10,000 for bronze. But the IRS considers these amounts to be regular income, subject to taxation.
A gold medalist from Team USA could end up facing a tax bill of $9,900 per gold medal, $5,940 per silver medal, and $3,960 per bronze medal.

https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/xm73z/irs_comes_to_collect_from_olympic_medal_winners/
IRS comes to collect from Olympic medal winners: $9000. for gold, $5300. for silver, and $3500. for bronze. The IRS actually sends the athlete a bill after they win.

Russia gives all its gold medalists $120,000 in cash AND new Mercedes.
Russia gave all of its gold medalists in the Sochi Games $120,000, plus a brand-new Mercedes GL SUV.
Silver medalists got $76,000 and a Mercedes ML, and bronze medalists got $52,000 and a Mercedes GLK.

and yet the IRS taxed our medalist for winning their medals

In America, you must first have your medal appraised so that they may figure the tax assessment correctly.

>bitcoin per U.S. law is not a currency
The legal situation is incredibly fucked up desu.
The SEC considers it a currency and you need to be licensed to do certain stuff with it, but the IRS considers it a commodity so they can get higher taxes.

IRS tracks your digital footprint. The IRS has quietly upgraded its technology so tax collectors can track virtually everything people do online.
The Internal Revenue Service is collecting a huge volume of personal information on taxpayers' digital activities, from eBay auctions to Facebook posts and, credit card and e-payment transaction records, as it expands its search for tax cheats to places it's never gone before.
The IRS, under heavy pressure to help Washington out of its budget quagmire by chasing down an estimated $300 billion in revenue lost to evasions and errors each year, will start using "robo-audits" of tax forms and third-party data the IRS hopes will help close this so-called "tax gap."
He adds that taxpayers should know that whatever people do and say electronically can and will be used against them in IRS enforcement.
The IRS has brought in private industry experts to employ similar digital tracking -- but with the added advantage of access to Social Security numbers, health records, credit card transactions and many other privileged forms of information that marketers don't see.
"Private industry would be envious if they knew what our models are," boasted Silverman, the agency's high-tech top gun
In presentations, officials have said they may use the big data for: Charting and analyzing social media such as Facebook. Targeting audits by matching tax filings to social media or electronic payments. Tracking individual Internet addresses and emailing patterns. Sorting data in 32,000 categories of metadata and 1 million unique "attributes." Machine learning across "neural" networks. Statistical and agent-based modeling. Relationship analysis based on Social Security numbers and other personal identifiers.

Americans in Sweden suffer US tax crackdown
Pamela is an American who has lived in Sweden for 25 years and has always been diligent about filing her US tax returns, something required of American citizens even if they live abroad.
But after chancing across some information about an obscure US tax regulation known as FBAR, Pamela has been on a roller-coaster ride that has taken her through a difficult maze of dense tax regulations and punishing financial penalties.
"I was potentially looking at a seven figure fine," she tells The Local.
FBAR is the common term used to refer to what US tax authorities officially call a Report of Foreign Bank and Financial Accounts, a law which has been on the books since the 1970s, but which US tax authorities have only recently begun to enforce in earnest.
Any US citizen living abroad who owns assets (checking, savings, pension, brokerage investments, life insurance, property, etc.) registered outside the US is required to file an FBAR.
For those living in Sweden this includes no
For those living in Sweden this includes not only bank accounts and the like, but also includes items such as Coop MedMera cards, ICA cards, and Rikskupong food vouchers.
The lawyer advised her that as she hadn’t filed her return on time, it meant she had undeclared income and with the current tough stance taken by the main US tax agency, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), for non-filers of the FBAR,
Much to her horror, Pamela discovered that the penalty for non-compliance of FBAR is $10,000 per bank account per year, Because many Swedish banks open a new account each time a stock is bought or a fund opened, Pamela had double-digit number of accounts registered in her name. she found herself potentially facing a penalty in excess of $1 million.

>>3409465
cont.
"Because I am fully integrated into Swedish society, I thought it would be an opportunity to explain my situation," she recalls.
But the reaction she received from US tax authorities was entirely different.
"I was treated like a criminal. I was told that it would be assumed I was a ‘willful violator’ of the tax laws and would need to pay 25 percent of [the value of] all my overseas assets, based on the highest balance in the sum total of all my bank accounts, retirement accounts, apartment, car, etc. over the last eight years," she says. Even the total value of Pamela's apartment was to be included in calculating the "lesser" penalty, not simply the amount remaining on her mortgage.
"I was told I should be happy I was not paying the seven figure penalty. But I have never even had close to seven figures in my accounts in my life!" she explains.
The United States is the only country in the developed world that requires its citizens to file tax returns, whether living in the US or not.
It doesn’t matter that there was no criminal action on Pamela’s part or that she might have had reasonable cause to have not complied with FBAR.
The IRS policy has been one of "no negotiation, one size fits all"
while Pamela may no longer be facing a seven-figure penalty, she's already racked up a bill of $40,000 in accountants' and lawyers' fees.
even Swedish financial institutions will soon find themselves facing new headaches due demands from US tax authorities regarding Americans living abroad. which requires foreign banks to report Americans to the IRS FATCA regulations require banks to install costly software and have already led some Swedish and other foreign banks to deny service to potential American clients.

How the DEA took a young man’s life savings without ever charging him with a crime
They didn't arrest him or charge him with a crime. But they took his cash anyway, every last cent, under the authority of the Justice Department's civil asset forfeiture program.
Rivers's life savings represent just a drop in the Justice Department's multibillion-dollar civil asset forfeiture bucket.
There is no presumption of innocence under civil asset forfeiture laws. Rather, law enforcement officers only need to have a suspicion -- in practice, often a vague. On the highway, for instance, police may cite things like tinted windows, air fresheners or trash in the car, according to a Washington Post investigation last year.
Once property has been seized, the burden of proof falls on the defendant to get it back -- even if the cops ultimately never charge them with a crime. "We don’t have to prove that the person is guilty," an Albuquerque DEA agent told the Journal. "It’s that the money is presumed to be guilty."
Asset forfeiture is lucrative for the DEA. According to their latest notification of seized goods, updated Monday, agents have seized well over $38 million dollars' worth of cash and goods from people in the first few months of this year. Some of the goods may be directly related to ongoing criminal investigations, but most of them are not.
For instance, in fiscal year 2014 Justice Department agencies made a total of $3.9 billion in civil asset seizures, versus only $679 million in criminal asset seizures. In most years since 2008, civil asset forfeitures have accounted for the lion's share of total seizures.

It doesn't need to be in cash for the thing to be seized. They can take it straight from a bank account.
The IRS has a history of performing civil asset forfeiture on savings accounts of owners and operators of small companies which operate on a cash basis.
How can you claim to be a free country when law enforcement is robbing the people in broad daylight, and the citizens are too afraid to do something about it? It isn't less of a mafia just because there's some paperwork behind it. Christ, the US is turning into a goddamn Kafka novel.

United States of America v. $124,700 in U.S. Currency, 05-3295 (8th Cir. 2006), was a decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit t
The form of the styling of this case—the defendant being an object, rather than a legal person
widely used in the area of asset forfeiture cases allow property (in this case, $124,700 in cash) to be directly sued by and forfeited to the government, without either just compensation or the possessor (and presumptive owner) being convicted of a crime.
The defendant currency was seized The district court concluded that the government had not established, by a preponderance of the evidence, that there was a substantial connection between the money and a drug trafficking offense.
The court also concluded, that "the bundling is consistent with an attempt to sort the currency by contributor and conceal the currency from would-be thieves, and not just to evade law enforcement.
Dissenting opinion Senior Circuit Judge Donald P. Lay, a Lyndon B. Johnson appointee to the Eighth Circuit, dissented, concluding "I cannot agree that the government has proven, by a preponderance of the evidence, the requisite substantial connection between the currency and a controlled substance offense."

McLellan, the owner of a convenience store in rural Fairmont, N.C., where catfish sandwiches go for $2.75, is still trying to recover the $107,702.66 — his entire business bank account — that was seized by the I.R.S. last summer.
Under the increasingly unpopular practice of civil forfeiture, law enforcement agents can seize property suspected of having ties to crime, even if no charges are filed — and then begin forfeiture proceedings, in which the burden of proof is on the owner. Often the cost of fighting such a seizure is greater than the value of the assets seized, and law enforcement agencies get to keep forfeiture proceeds. Such a windfall, critics say, creates perverse incentives, and the lack of due process runs counter to the central tenets of the American justice system.
Mr. McLellan’s money was seized under a subset of civil forfeiture law that governs cash deposits under $10,000, the threshold at which a bank is required to report the transaction to the government. But limiting deposits to less than $10,000 to evade the reporting requirement, known as structuring, is illegal in its own right. Structuring seizures have ballooned in recent years as law enforcement task forces comb through hundreds of thousands of bank reports, often using warrants based on nothing more than a pattern of deposits.
The seizure dragnet has ensnared small business owners who operate with cash and may have legitimate reasons to keep their deposits low, or do not know that doing so could get them into trouble. In Michigan, for example, the owners of a drugstore had an insurance policy that only covered the loss of $10,000 or less in cash.

“It was like I was just slapped in the face with something. I didn’t know what was going on,” said Mr. McLellan, 50, who has a 10th-grade education and has built a small gas station into a convenience store and restaurant. “You work for something for 13, 14 years, and they take it in 13, 14 minutes.”
During a congressional hearing in February, Representative Holding, a Republican from North Carolina, referred to Mr. McLellan’s case, saying no crime other than structuring had been alleged. it’s not following the policy,” Koskinen, the commissioner of the I.R.S., said. But the prosecutor on the case, Steve West, was unmoved. Mr. McLellan’s lawyer said the fact that prosecutors refuse to drop the case shows that self-restraint by federal agencies is not enough and that Congress needs to rein in civil forfeiture.

Police Can Seize And Sell Assets Even When The Owner Broke No Law
You don't have to be convicted of a crime — or even accused of one — for police to seize your car or other property. It's legal. S
The practice is called civil asset forfeiture, and every year it brings cities millions of dollars in revenue, which often goes directly to the police budget. Police confiscate cars, jewelry, cash and homes But the people these things belong to may have done nothing wrong.
In one video posted by The New York Times, Connelly, the city attorney of Las Cruces, N.M., gleefully describes how the city collects these "little goodies," calling it a "gold mine." He describes to a roomful of local officials from across the state how Las Cruces police officers waited outside a bar for a man they hoped would walk out drunk because they "could hardly wait" to get their hands on his 2008 Mercedes, which they then hoped to put up for auction. "We could be czars," he tells the room. "We could own the city. We could be in the real estate business."
It is legal for law enforcement agencies to take property from people who haven't been convicted of a crime. Edwards, director of the criminal law reform project at the ACLU, tells NPR you don't even have to be charged with a crime. It's what makes it so rife for abuse." The concept is that police are, in theory, bringing charges against the property. That's why, Edwards says, the cases are titled U.S. v. $4,000. Or U.S. v. White Cadillac.

banks tell US customers they won't work with Americans
Thousands of Americans abroad are giving up their citizenship as the implementation of a complex new tax law causes banks to shut down accounts for US expatriates
Moon was actually an American – albeit one who had lived in Canada for 32 years.
But Moon cut ties with America three years ago, after new banking laws aimed at tax evaders required expats like her to file more thorough US tax returns. “I was terrified we’d lose all our money,” she says.
Moon renounced her US citizenship one of the first canaries to leave the coalmine as US banking laws make life more difficult for American expatriates.
FATCA required all foreign banks to disclose the financial information of any American
Steep penalties add muscle to the law. If a foreign bank fails to report even a single US citizen to the IRS, the US Treasury department would withhold 30% of the banks’ US income as penalty.
Foreign banks, some of whom earned a reputation as tax scofflaws, are now deeply afraid of the Internal Revenue Service. The US government is policing foreign banks aggressively
Scared of running afoul of US banking laws, foreign banks are taking extreme steps to limit US citizens
The result for expats has been a chaotic brew of closed bank accounts, and a scramble to find local banks that would allow them to park their money. are amazed they can’t find a foreign bank that will take their money.
“Our bank is not allowed to report financial information to our tax agency [in Canada]. So it’s absurd that the US government can get this information,” says Moon.
A year ago, Dublin, an American finance professional living in Zurich, received a notice from his bank in Switzerland. The note told him that the bank no longer served US citizens.

You think you control everything.”
The new ‘Berlin Wall’
Enter the “regulatory issues” that have bedeviled Dublin, Besser and other Americans living overseas. FATCA’s impact has hit many of the seven million American expatriates
Besser, a dual German-American citizen says that among expats in Germany, the preferred term for the legislation is ‘Berlin Wall’. “It’s shameful and humiliating that a country so free is so restricting,” she says. Besser says her bank, ING-DiBa, told her that that it did not work with Americans anymore. ING-DiBa closed it down because of Besser’s German-American dual citizenship. Her husband had to take her name off their joint investment account But if they find out he’s married to an American, they might tell him to get lost,” Besser says. Besser’s investment options are severely restricted as an expatriate “I’m shut out because I live abroad,” she says.
The complications have become so prevalent that, as a last resort, thousands of Americans have asked US Consulates abroad to cancel their citizenship. to stem the tide, the state department raised the fee for citizenship renunciation fourfold hoping the steep fee will discourage more people from giving up their passports.
Ferauge, a Seattle-born American married to a Frenchman She relates stories of fellow expatriates who have had to take their names off joint accounts – some holding small family inheritances – because banks would not accept US customers.

The woes of the accidental Americans Even those Canadians who might be called ‘accidental Americans’ don’t like the long arm of the IRS. Welch’s Canadian bank found out that he was, in spite of possessing a Canadian passport for the last 41 years, a dual citizen of US and Canada. He was naturalised as a child when his parents moved to Canada
To avoid breaking any laws, Welch will have to renounce his US citizenship and file five years’ worth of tax returns as well as possibly thousands of dollars to the US government in taxes on income he earned in Canada. He will have to foot bills for airplane flights and miss out on wages – and that’s not counting the $2,350 fee to renounce a citizenship he never assumed in the first place.
Welch, who has no intentions of living in the US, finds the idea that he has to pay taxes to the US government ridiculous. I feel about the same obligation to file US tax papers as you would if the court of Uruguay all of a sudden decided you were a citizen and had to file a tax return there

So I have one American friend living in France who developed cancer. She had to quit her job and go in for very, very intensive chemotherapy and surgery. It was an open question as to whether or not she was going to live (she did). While she was out of work, she struggled financially, but the French government paid her unemployment benefits. At the end of the year, she discovered, to her horror, that unemployment benefits , she had to pay taxes on them. Only by chance did someone else point out , so she had to hire an international tax lawyer to file her tax return. That's not the sort of bullshit you want to deal with while fighting for your life.
Mind you, she's lived in France most of her adult life. She and her French husband bought a French house, with French income, and years later sold it to a French person. Nothing to do with the US, but she and her husband were very upset to find the US with its hand outstretched, demanding capital gains taxes.
Oh, and didn't realize you needed to file your FinCen form 114 (FBAR)? Bankruptcy inducing fines. you probably also didn't know you needed to file the 8938. Same data, reported in different ways to different agencies, at different times. Also bankruptcy inducing fines. And possibly criminal charges, for extra fun. Note that those bankruptcy-inducing penalties apply even if you have filed your taxes and paid every penny! Massive damned fines which are bankrupting people all over the planet, even though many Americans abroad had never even known about them.

I like my government when it comes to crypto, they are just retarded when it comes to everything else.

Oh shit, when I read Shreveport bells went off in my head, the guy I was buying a bunch of btc from when I was still using localbitcoins was with Chase bank deposits to some LLC in Shreveport, la. Does anyone know this guys company name?

As someone whose been to prison for bullshit injustice (haha yeah they all say that) let me tell you this guys going to prison is absolute bullshit injustice.

Four fucking years of prison. FOUR FUCKING YEARS.

I went for 2 days and I survived but let me say, I feel bad for this man having to go for nearly 4 years. What the absolute fuck.

No one gets hurt but the law will still fuck your life up!

Yeah it's pretty bullshit. They will do anything to stop the goys from breaking free of the 9-5 wageslave system. You're theirs for life, whether you like it or not. So fucking disgusting.

It is his own fault. He should have obeyed the law, or contested through.
