You say "sales tax", shouldn't it be "unearned income tax", a tax that you would be responsible for not those giving ?
If the powers that be could charge tax for the air you breathe, they would (and probably will some day).
I don't see you as an "e-beggar" at all, I really like the content you generate.
If eBay and Amazon paid their proper tax burden you wouldn't have to!
Fran, change your status to a charity that should do it!!! 'Fran Lab Church' OR 'Church of Fran'
Only 15% of my patrons on Patreon view my posts
Thank you for that data point, another helpful bit of info from Franlab!
So… Let's see now: 1) Write a personal check made out to Fran. 2) Fill out an envelope addressed to her. 3) Place proper postage stamp. 4) Get off your ASS and go to the FRIG'IN Post Office.
what a racket sales, use and VAT taxes is(are). If your ptrons reduce their donations the tax remains just a smaller amount on a smaller donation. And you're right that you pay tax at your end and now they are getting it from your customers too.
New Zealand taxed YouTube and YouTube passed the bill to you, sorry bout that
Fran keep in there, keep your head up over the water! Put on some of your fav music and elevate your spirit. I don't know any better and faster remedy but trust me I was there several times. Ugly dark cold and lonely place to be. You have a community behind you!
I can smell a new religion: BlancheFan religion. 😉
Your patreon tiers … are some of the most reasonable … I've seen on any patreon, I doubt more than single digit patrons if any will jump ship because of this, try not to get stressed, the idea of removing all rewards from tiers probably wont be solving this issue either, people support you because they support you to create the videos, not for the rewards they get, its all very sad. but stay calm – when you feel better reduce the meds if you can, patrons will stick around. All this noise is stopping you from concentrating on new videos, yes the religious tax exemption in america is massively abused.
Ahhhh, the fingers of government.
I have VAT on top of my pledge since ever. I'm not a US citizen, I'm european, I don't know who's gonna get that VAT.
Worth watching just for the Dire Straits reference, alone
I wasn't one of your patron's but am now. In the UK and we have to pay 20% vat but there you go, I'm sure my government will spend it wisely. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. Stay Safe.
Keep your head up Fran! We will all fight the fight and possibly subscribe to the "Religion of FranLab". It's so fitting that this video comes from Philly!
Its reminding me of the opening scene in the movie Popeye.
