An interesting viewpoint.
It doesn't make any sense though.
So young man, why do you not know how a business works?
How about some simple sums, if someones personal income appears sufficient to clear a bank liablity how much money is wasted in a single year on servicing an $800,000 debt(without considering any penalty clauses)?

By what proportion would the property taxes have to be raised in a year to negate any saving made in paying off a loan?

How?
How much would it cost?
How big would the political diplomatic and business fallout be?
How much would that fallout cost?

Here in Utah we give a tax break for each child. Mormon families with 9 kids pay hardly any taxes. Their schooling is covered by folks who decided to help the population problem by not having any children. Is that what you meant.

We need to end taxes, clear and simple. Unfortunately that's not possible. What we need to do is reduce all government until it does nothing but govern. The Federal Government was created to keep the States on the straight and narrow and to present a solidified face to all other countries. That's it. Of course from the beginning that has not been all it's used for, and that can never be.

I don't think we'll ever be on the right track until all elected officials are of the opinion that taxes are a necessary evil. Since that will never happen, we'll never be on the right track.

All that said, I agree. If we're going to have taxes we need to keep people from avoiding them.

I'm 22 years-old now and I doubt that this would pass in Capitol Hill in my lifetime. Would be nice to proven to be wrong though.

Thank you, thank you, thank you more than words can express.

I ran a successful web hosting company along side my friend for 2 years before we sold it to some guy in Pennsylvania (just didn't have time to devote to the server upkeep) so that's one of the things that just sets me off - when people undermine my intelligence.

Either way, he's ignored now.

If the government is nationalizing businesses, then why isn't the government paying taxes ?? It's all crowney capitalism, pay to play, and it's the governments fault where we are at now it is almost treasonist, what they have done, and the only answers they got is turning us on each other, as they sneak out, like a thief in the night.

Young man, you undermined yourself from the word go and continue to do so on a regular basis.

You should have done this when I first warned you about him and saved yourself a lot of irritation.

Is that the time his rather silly lies started unravelling and he got upset or the is it the time he got in a tizzy over maths when he didn't understand a question?
