In the US, one earning more than 7 times national average income cannot accept gifts at all? Have I read right? "4 USC 888" does not exist.

It's a joke using a very dry sense of humor. The mix of cultures on this site make that hard to pick out at times but this one is wholly a joke.

As you found, that is not law.

I didn't say anything about gifts, sorry for any confusion. Please feel free to send gifts!

By the way, I also happily accept gifts myself :)

I refuse all kinds of gifts, except for information and knowledge material, from anyone except my immediate family. I also do not gift anyone who may have a business or personal relationship with me now or any time in the future.
