For a second there thought that was about Niall Ferguson and just misspelled. 

 

I'm sure for my friends on the right they're pretty much the same anyways.

He's had his moments. I found him quite logical during the Iraq War, and his historical references to the Hindu Kush re:withdrawal were spot on. In recent times though, a lot more attention being like this apparent Neil.

Exclusive: Volunteers recruited from out-of-state must pay NY taxes

A negative, though, according to the leader of the Samaritan's Purse operation in New York, is what he learned a few days ago.

"Our financial comptroller called me," said Ken Isaacs, a vice president of the organization, "and he said, 'Do you know that all of you are going to be liable for New York state income tax?'

"I said, 'What?'" Isaacs continued. "[The comptroller] said, 'Yeah, there's a law. If you work in New York State for more than 14 days, you have to pay state income tax.'"

 

 

 

I guess that premium healthcare workers thought they were getting by going to NY to help out with Covid19 are going to be surprised.

   I am more surprised that people didn't know that.  We hire a lot of travellers at times and the biggest downside they talk about is doing taxes when you have worked in 4 different states. They still make enough to pay someone to do their taxes.

A guy use to work with us that went on to become a Cy Young winner. 

 

His father in law was our plant manager. I remember him saying how much it cost him to travel with the team to New York, even if he wasnt pitching.

   Well at least he didn't pitch for the Angels or Dodgers. I wonder how much this influences athletes decisions on where to play when they are free agents?

Actually he did pitch for the dodgers at one point. Kevin Brown

   I think California income tax is worse than NY.

If I were in that position, one of my very top criteria would be "where there's no state income tax."
