“Tayson Weeks, who decided to sell raspberries from his family’s farm to save up for a small motorcycle, was confronted by the tax commission on his second day selling to local residents. ‘He wanted to buy himself a little Honda pit bike. I told him he’d have to pay it for himself,’ said Jason Weeks, the boy’s father. According to Jason, the Tax Commission handed his son a tax form and gave him until Oct. 15 to send the state 6 percent of his earnings. The piece comes following a report by Anthony Gucciardi detailing how, meanwhile, a top bureaucrat works for around 2 hours per day and makes over $400,000 in cash paid for by union workers.”
