^^^ this is essentially 'more of the same' ... with the recent success of 'employee dancer' lawsuits in NY, MA etc. now trying to proliferate to MI and GA.
I am told that there seems to be a new willingness by the courts / gov't to see exotic dancers classified as employees since doing so brings their work / earnings 'on the books' ... thus subject to IRS automatic income reporting etc., which in turn will result in higher federal and state tax revenue collections.
And it is also a case of being careful what you wish for. We've dealt with the downside of these suits in other related threads and I won't repeat all of it here.
If you look at MOST of these cases it seems that the only "winners" were the lawyers. On both sides. What else is new ? I'm starting to wonder if the plaintiffs got sold a bill of goods from their lawyers ? How realistic were their expectations ? Most importantly , did they ever think of some of the ramifications of winning ? At least some of the changes brought about are NOT to the benefit of many dancers. Especially the "queens " and hustlers at many clubs. Maybe for a few wallflowers but NOT for most of the steady earners.





^^^ actually, there are other 'winners' ... federal and state income tax agencies, Social Security / Medicare tax, state disability and unemployment insurance funds, etc.
Well yeah but. I doubt very much that the plaintiffs even thought about any of that at any time.
