Taxes on the Emmy Goody Bags

If these are goods for service, it is income dollar one. If your employer gives you a $25.00 gift certificate for doing a good job...that is taxable income. Technically, if your employer gives you McDonald gift certificates, that is income and should be taxed.

Why should they be any different?

I know a lot of people who get $25 gift certificates and they donate them to people who need them more than they do...why should celebrities be any different?

I too am sick to death of the whining and crying of the celebrities who have millions and they whine about no privacy, etc...well guess what? YOU wanted to become famous, so DEAL WITH IT!
