It's surprising how many people are siding with the drug dealer. The dude doesn't even pay taxes...

    I've met drug dealers who pay their taxes. The IRS doesn't really give a shit if what you're doing is illegal, so long as they get paid.

    Knew a guy who sold shrooms to people, he'd give you an invoice for em.

    Not for the shrooms, fuck no, it was all for computer repair and building and consulting and yadda yadda. Sold shrooms with fake PC invoices for a few years and eventually managed to snag a job doing something in IT thanks to the 3 years of running a PC home business

    Still sells shrooms, too, the lovely bastard. Dunno if he gives invoices anymore though

    This is true see IRS publication 525.

    Illegal activities.

     

    Income from illegal activities, such as money from dealing illegal drugs, must be included in your income on Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 8z, or on Schedule C (Form 1040) if from your self-employment activity.

    Bribes are also considered taxable income.

    The point here is to make it explicitly clear that if you're making money off illegal activity, you can and will be charged with tax evasion when caught. The government will still take action if you tell on yourself, even for tax purposes 👍

    As a former dealer, this is a dumb take. Yeah ofc I paid my taxes. Don't confuse people who just wanna make a living with some strung out federal-lifer who doesn't even give a shit. You're letting your prejudices think for you.
