Technically people do owe taxes on revenue from illegal activity. You certainly could put a tax on something that’s illegal, I just don’t think it would bring in much revenue I’d you’re still prosecuting people for that same thing you are taxing.
They tried that and it was previously struck down.
Don’t you have to state how much money you made illegally on your taxes?
Yeah, the legality of the source of the gain or income is irrelevant in regard to taxation.
There’s actually no line in the 1040 specifically for income arising from illegal activity, no box to check or anything, so it’s hard for the IRS to even filter returns with that criteria.
Most criminals with significant income from illegal activity still have to worry about the random audit or being the focus of interdepartmental attention so many do pay taxes and have a decent backstory to explain how they pay their mortgage, but money laundering is a more common way to go about as opposed to listing a whole bunch of vague shit as other income (which would raise quite a few questions if their file was pulled).
Fun movie trivia: in The Irishman, De Niro’s character, a hitman, claimed to ‘paint houses’ for a living due to his ability to furnish receipts for things like rollers, rags, cleaning supplies, and drop cloths. Probably bought a lot of paint too and handed it off to be tossed it in some dumpster
Isn’t this the plot of A Scanner Darkly?
Nothing to see here, just politics as usual, the liberals are just trying to scare everyone. /s
Wow, I’m so glad this dipshit who’s never had to work a day in his life could give this paternal wisdom to the plebs who might need this medication to retain employment and not die destitute in the streets.
Who knew they just needed to be sent to a farm upstate so they could run free forever and ever?
Trade offer: you take my Prozac, I go off the deep end and take some fucks with me.
So his solution to ADHD is a concentration camp?
Sure, that way they can learn to concentrate.
That’s what trump said to the ICC when they issued a public statement in 2025 about criminalizing mental illness
This is part of some rural grift facilities which probably started with “trouble teens”. In recent years I’ve seen reports of these “farms” for “distressed” women. It’s usually a place with Ranch in the name. Example: https://friendlyatheist.patheos.com/2021/11/18/the-christian-maternity-ranch-in-texas-is-a-disaster-in-the-making/
Permaculture farms, for example, are already well known for relying on abusive work conditions. See Joel Salatin:

I wonder if commenters here went beyond the headline, or bothered to read the quote in the comments.
The actual quote is not remotely as sinister. He said that he will start these community farms (which is not a labour camp for f sake) where addicts (which is not everyone who takes meds, it’s those who do but shouldn’t, of which there are thousands) can voluntarily choose to go, which is a far cry from “I’ll shove anybody who takes antidepressants into a labour camp” as the title suggests.
There are a lot of people who take meds from dealers instead of doctors, who may have started recreationally but are now addicted to them. This is what he is lumping together with other kinds of drug addicts. It’s not even that stupid, it has been shown in studies that addiction is more effectively addressed by giving the person meaningful things to do.
Now you can have your opinion on this idea and you can be skeptical of his implementation and you really should, the guy is a nut job who shouldn’t be allowed within ten kilometres from a government office - but sending regular joes to concentration camps because they take meds is not what he said.
This title is rage bait, don’t fall for it.
I’m on Methalphdenadite, don’t really know how to spell that…
A very ADHD answer. Methylphenidate. It’s the generic name for Ritalin.
Or Concerta depending on exactly what it is. I’m also on methylphenidate and had to check to see if it was Ritalin.
Ritalin is the fast acting version, while Concerta is the slow acting, but longer lasting version. Both use the same active ingredient.
huh
Some sort of camp to help ADHD folks work on their concentration?
Laughed too hard at this. It’s a Focus Group!!!
call it a focus village or soemthing
I imagine a terrible, awful future Forest Gump remake.
“They had these camps that helped folks with their concentration or something like that. They said I was a shine-ning example, so I got to meet the president of the United States, again.”
“They tell me this guy is the best example. Got treated, got rich in shrimp. What a guy! Our camps are great, the best camps in all the world.”
Camera pans to Trump shaking hands with Kim Jong Un.
“In Korea, everybody got these pic-tures of their leader on the wall. We got those in Alabama too.”
“You go to a concentration camp and you go to a concentration camp! Everyone goes to a concentration camp!”
