Yes.
Basing his Sex Blackmail Operation in the USVI meannt, on average, a 90% reduction in corporate taxes and almost no personal income taxes. The requirements are modest; you have to make 10 local hires and you have to invest at least $100k in "local infrastructure".
His only unshakable rule for his local hires was, "I want to NEVER see you".
So all the local staff would scurry away any time he or his showed up.

Add this to your conjectures. Who was the president during most of this crap? Who was president when the plea deal was arranged? Why is the Brown SHirt Media carelessly slinging accusations in every direction but THIS ONE?

I’m not on to anything. It was the 70s, that’s all. Of course, all these guys hung out at private NYC schools - the girls were pretty and rich. Finch was a private college on the Upper Eastside. I remember we entertained Alan Alda for lunch one day when he was caught hanging outside our doors. He was quite nice, actually. Trump used to date Finch girls but he was in their age bracket and met them at the Ivy League mixers that were held. (The girls thought he was boring.) I have to explain that or else the Never Trumpers here will be screaming he was dating/raping teeny boppers.
Finch didn’t have a high school. It was a private liberal arts college that specialized in fine art degrees. It had one of the best small art galleries in the city. It went under during the break up of all same sex colleges, sadly. All my records are at Marymount, the Catholic college nearby. I went to school with Ingrid Bergman’s daughters and the future Queen Noor. Quite an experience!
Pedophilia is a listed mental disorder...so is GID.
Yup, that's critical. There's incredible, unrealized synergy between wealth management and blackmail.
Epstein hit on the way to circumvent the specific way that former high-shool coach, later GOP congressman Denny Hastert got busted:
He was repeatedly taking out large sums of money for no discernible reason. The authorities were baffled and suspicious:
Rep. Denny Hastert was being *blackmailed* by an extremeley pissed-off, now more grown-up and clearer-thinking man who'd been one of the high-school wrestlers that Hastert had molested .
Epstein's clients DID NOT HAVE to make inexplicable payments to him, the way that Hastert did:
Epstein appeared to be WORKING for them, and in many cases it was probably actually true.
What an amazing life you’ve had..!
Wow..!
Great insights.
Ohhhhh, this little small town journal apparently worked for decades to discover this fact about this poor man who never even lived in their small town, give them the Pulitzer now

I think it’s even possible he took the job from the outset with something like that in mind.
I lived there for 8 years - 1st between 89/90th, 91st and Lex and 92nd between 3rd and Lex . . I stand by my post that the Upper East Side is liberal. Maybe not as much as the West Side with Columbia U. and Spanish Harlem but remember that A-A Harlem on the East side is not exactly voting Republican either.
I wrote in my post that it skewed liberal compared to other parts of the country. But they did not vote for DeBlasio which speaks to the more Republican nature of the area. It still has strong Republican clubs there. Yes, liberal Republican clubs but people appear to confuse it with the nutty Upper Westside.
Wow..! That’s terrible.
I feel very sorry, but yeah, that totally makes sense.
:(
Flaws in your theory:
Billionaires or pols or celebs aren’t going to outwardly pay. Too suspicious. They have a lot to lose.
There is no way Epstein actually legally EARNED.
So probably this whole thing started when he went to work for Wexner.
His billionaire benefactor also liked diddling kids, and this was their entire raison d’etre. So they hooked up the whole system, setting Ep up as the billionaire fund manager, with the homes and planes. They were approached by or offered The Oligarchy (could be Americans involved, could be Russians, but I know I’ve read somewhere there was Saudi connection so that is what I am going with) for very high-priced evidence... which was their job to collect.
The genius of it was that this cocky “really really wealthy guy” was literally doing teen girls in front of them, at these amazing hidden places (on the plane! On his own island!). How safe is that? The host is literally having sex with them in the open, the mansion is filled with hot young teens, every body’s doing it, clearly it’s safe to let your famous hair down here.
And all the hard evidence is still out there.... when he blew up his island twice in January, it might “seem” like the evidence is gone, but it might be in a Saudi royal vault, in Switzerland, in Moscow...
WHOEVER TOOK PART can’t ever relax again... EVEN IF EPSTEIN COMMITS SUICIDE WITH HIS EXERCISE BANDS. :)
This is getting “Deep”,
Who’s Blackmailing
WHO?
Wow, that must have been wild. In both ways. I attended a school for Hollywood’s elite and while some of it was interesting, some of the most famous people completely neglected their kids. After all, we aren’t talking royalty, we’re talking mostly nouveau riche people who spend their time completely self absorbed.
