A hair care scam

Sat., Oct. 17, 2020

What an incredible heap of elephant feces to learn we can all deduct thousands of dollars for annual hair care from our income taxes.

I do my own hair every day, so I figure at $100 a day for a hair styling session, I can deduct $36,000. for my own hair care. That’s more than I and many others make in annual income. We would be free of paying income taxes! So nine of Trump’s companies have paid $95,464. for Ivanka Trump’s hair styling, which was a tax deduction as well.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we all followed Donald J. Trump’s playbook of evading taxes?
