Correct.

I paid cash for my current assets (approximately $48,000) and financed the remaining $12,000 ish through my local bank.

uncle sam didnt have squat to do with it.

I dont mind paying taxes for those things... i DO MIND forced philanthropy... there is a difference between supporting your community through taxes which contribute to roads, parks, police etc and paying taxes which support pookie's sedentary lifestyle and crack addiction

im very middle class... im no millionaire, but i despise the individuals who leech off the hind tit of society... something tells me you would rather we had more people like that.

As has been pointed out before, you do accept government financial aid.
As has also been pointed out before, you really should get a decent accountant and a better understanding of taxes.

please explain how i borrowed government money or received government grants in any way to start a business.

since you would obviously know my business.

besides even if i did receive a government grant, i used it for a constructive purpose. unlike some folks who blow it on alcohol and sit out on the porch all day getting hammered. lol

I'd hit it. I'd disarm it first though... The best commie is an unarmed commie.

Its a risk im willing to take!

Did I mention starting a business?
Though of course you got a business loan from your bank in the region of $12000ish for startup which of course is subsidised...unless of course you think that the banks tax subsidised business loans miraculously become unsubsidised when they are issued to you personally.
Every time you file your taxes you get grants...as a business you get more grants than Joe not really the plumber...unless of course your accountant is crap or has decided you deserve to be screwed over

since you would obviously know my business.

As it happens I find your business fascinating, or rather your claims about your tax liabilities and absence of govt. financial assistance
Remind me again how you got got to your "nearly half" figure.
What was it again? A net payment from the current account balance in the final quarter.

What does any of that **** have to do with the subject at hand.

Honestly pepole the diversion tactic is getting old.

What does any of that **** have to do with the subject at hand.

The subject in hand is whatever someone has raised in the subject.
Since Goldenrivet has raised his problems with understanding business finance and the role of tax money in it in this topic it is now part of the subject up for discussion.

But don't you find it funny that he compalins about government involvement in business yet his nick is derived from a business project that cannot have been undertaken without massive government assistance, could never have operated witout tax payers subsidies and has for well over 150 had to be propped up amost entirely by the taxpayer....yet without whose existance would have consigned the US and the majority of it business to being tiny little insignificant side shows on par with a cigarette stand in Arsendofnowhere Alaska
