Ct. to deduct back taxes from lottery winnings

Comment #28

How many delinquents can they recover back payments from by placing so much focus on confiscating lottery winnings? Why don't they really

get their heads together and find another plan to make sure at least something is recovered from any source of income the deadbeats collect.

Why sit around patting themselves on the back for initiating confiscations on the small amount of individuals who ACTUALLY win a lottery prize large

enough to pay attention to?...For crying out loud, if they coul... [ More ]

Same here.

Anyone know offhand which states do and don't do this?

I know that Ohio can deduct back child support out of taxes. (There was a big scandal in my area a few years ago. A guy hit a huge scratch-off prize, and it turned out that he owed $50K in back child support.)

But I'm not sure what Ohio does about back taxes

You illustrate very clearly the contrast between how an undereducated right winger expresses himself verbally compared to a more typical liberal. I'll bet you're proud of your style too.

So, who does or does not pay taxes is none of my business, but, of course, it IS yours. Is that correct? If it is, it's a very curious arrangement. Don't you think?

You'll have to try another spelling of biachie. I can't ascertain what warm sentiments you sent me.

Trust you, Everybody knows what my poin... [ More ]

Nancy, Nancy, Nancy. What am I gonna do with you, you little rapscallion?

Are you off your meds again?

You think I'm a moderator now, LOL? You think I can expunge things or have them expunged?

Listen Nancy, if I could expunge anything it would be all your paranoia and fears and psychoses.

Nobody is out to get you, Nancy. There's no boogie man under your bed, there's no monster in the closet, so relax, it's all in your twisted, paranoid little mind.

You're taking screen shots? I do... [ More ]

Dull dull dull dull dull Gladys.

No, dullard you didn't hit a nerve.

You're just another busy-body group-think kool-aid drinking leftist that doesn't have a frinking clue, mind your own business and don't worry about who does and who doesn't pay taxes you little biachie.

Trust me, everybody knows exactly what I am talking about, dimwit. No explanation necessary, everybody knows who Glady Kravitz is.

Go ahead screen shot all you want.

jarasan says, Your point is dull, all your points are dull, you are a dullard. You are a self righteous sanctimonious tattletale dimwit. Your avatar should be Gladys Kravitz.

OH MY! (I MUST HAVE HIT A NERVE)

If this is truly his opinion of my posts, I wonder why he replies to them, or even pays attention to them?

And since he has such a STRONG opinion of my point, I wonder if he would be willing to explain to everyone, JUST WHAT IT IS HE THINKS MY POINT IS IN THIS INSTANCE?

Looks like you've got the graveyard shift tonight. Bummer. Well, you're really Johnny on the Spot! Only twelve minutes to complete a feeble attempt at gutter humor to draw attention away from my point. How long will it take you to have this post expunged like my thread 235384? BTW, it still pops up in your search facility; you'd better fix that! When the moderator[s] of a website like this are so thin-skinned that they must resort to deleting posts or entire threads that either don't fit with th... [ More ]

Don't have a full-blown fluster-fit, Nancy.

You're still my favorite little toe-tapper.

When I observe you contributing something that indicates your purpose for posting here goes beyond fulfilling your duties as a resident LP moderator / police-person, attempting comedy, I'll consider giving fallacious reasoning a pass once in a while.

I never said that...I was actually appauled it took all this time for these mental martyrs to come up with such a plan.

as for the KY comment,that was just for CT lottery in general with regards to options for their prizes

Were you the classroom stool pigeon in school, Nancy?

Did the normal kids lock you in your locker all the time?

All you ever do is piss and moan, whine and complain.

We all know you're a liberal but must you act like one every minute of the day?

Pretend you're not the geek-weasel you are once in a while and just mind your own business.

I think you might find it to be a liberating experience to hear of someone doing something you think might be wrong and not having to run to s... [ More ]

not all 5,this one disagrees w/ alimony,or any other extortion for that matter.

Apparently, the five posters previous to me believe that people with tax delinquencies should get a free ride. That's fine with me as long as these five people and all who agree with them are willing to accept higher taxes for themselves to make up for those who don't pay.

Just have someone who doesn't owe back taxes collect it.

I hope they never do that with back alimony.

Not that I'd care.

That's what a friend of mine says.

If they also got rid of the deadbeats in the Senate and Congress their wouldn't be such a delinquentcy in taxes also Pay these officials for work done, and Conn would be one healthy state. Forrest Gump is really proud of you guys....!

I love it: Stanford resident suggest this??? Are these individuals drinking to much creek water??/ Pathetic to say the least...

I can imagine how much it cost per hour for the amount of people it took to come up with that idea

Won't be shocked when they start handing out complimentary KY jelly at the lottery entrance

Ct. to deduct back taxes from lottery winnings

Lottery Post — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 22:02:52 GMT

Stamford resident's idea inspired legislation

Legislation (HB6270), introduced by State Representative Gerald Fox III (D-Stamford) requiring the Connecticut Lottery to deduct delinquent taxes and penalties before distributing a lottery prize of $5,000 or more to a winner, was ceremoniously signed into law Friday by Governor Dannel Malloy at the State Capitol.

The new law applies to winning lottery tickets redeemed on or after January 1, 2012. There is currently about $400 million in state... [ More ]
