    The sting has been sprung. The Avenue is open again.

      It was not all the way open. And why so hard on those who would rather die on earth than in space with unknown entities?

    A single ticket sold in California won a massive Powerball prize of nearly $700 million — the seventh-largest in US lottery history.

    “Congratulations to our lucky player from Morro Bay who matched 6/6 numbers and won the $699.8 Million #Powerball jackpot.”

    The winning numbers were white balls 12, 22, 54, 66, and 69. The Powerball number was 15.

    The winner can choose between getting it as an annuity paid over 29 years or $496 million cash. Both options are subject to taxes.

    I saw this in the NY Post:
    “Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is defending a Biden administration proposal that would require banks to report data to the Internal Revenue Service on transactions over $600, calling the collection of information “routine,” after taking heat for the idea that is widely seen as an unprecedented invasion of privacy.

    During an interview on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Tuesday, Yellen was pressed on whether the IRS has the “wherewithal” to collect more information about taxpayers and bank accounts including cash flows, something many Republicans have called invasive.

    “Well, of course they do,” Yellen said. “Right now, on every bank account that earns more than $10 a year in interest, the banks report the interest earned to the IRS. That’s part of the information base that includes W2’s and reports on dividends in other income that taxpayers earned. So collection of information is routine.”

    Yellen cited the “enormous tax gap” in the US as the reason behind the proposed tax hikes and information collecting, blaming the gap on places where information on income “can be hidden.””

    Sheez. Can they nickel and dime the little people any further? This is chump change. If they’d grow some balls and start going after the millionaire/billionaires who are hiding assets to skip paying taxes, they might recoup some real cash. Instead, this seems like just a desperate reason to squeeze the have nots further and kowtow to the haves.

    Lucy, I’m not sure- but I am sure the site needs some backdoor action. Iphone commenting is very wonky. Maybe time for a refresh
