Yeah, it sounds like this is just a tool they're really getting a lot of use out of, so they have a giant "in-joke" that it's actually an employee.


I'd like to see them pay income taxes for this 'employee' and do all the other paperwork needed.


That employee would need a corresponding Social Security Tax Number System (SSTNS) number, and only those with resident registration are eligible.

I'm not sure the government wants to collect taxes on an individual that doesn't use any social services. It would be very strange.
