I was told the pros pay big bucks for their spot rentals and all their support vehicles. Been like that for a while now.

Yep. I don' t know if the numbers have changed, but not too long ago, they paid for every space over one space per car. It was $2,000 per space for part-timers and $1,500 per space for those committed to run the full national event schedule. DSR and JFR pay a bunch of money for their support vehicle and hospitality spaces.

Anybody know if the IRS came down with a ruling on this? I sure wish I could pull in $770K for doing something I loved to do.
Wonder if the RICO Act would apply to these cretins? They could probably teach organized crime a few tricks.

Ed, I seriously doubt the IRS even bothered. Think about the timing of the complaint, and who it was addressed to.

Seeing the name and date on this letter, it would be interesting to know who's campaigns the Board-of-Directors donated monies to.

Ah yes, addressed to Lois Lerner, got her law degree at Western New England College, about 2 miles from my shop. She was to address the graduating class a few years ago, but withdrew after they found under her direction that the IRS was holding back paperwork for all tea party non profits.
