All of my income tax savings are legit and based upon IRS code. I can guarantee you that I know more about IRS code than do most accountants or even many IRS employees - still I pay a very good guy to watch stuff. He is an ex-IRS employees who was in enforcement for 10 years.
Here let me give you my latest way to beat FT and I haven't even really gotten into it. Multilevel marketing. I could avoid the FT at all levels in that organization.
If and when the FT (not likely) is passed I will hold seminars telling people how to beat it. I think $2,000 for a two day session
Pyramid schemes only work once. Everybody else is just a sucker.
Thinking that a sales tax is going to drastically change retail sales is patently absurd.
There are several states that have a sales tax INSTEAD of an income tax and retail sales in those states works just like it does in states that do not have a state sales tax.
I doubt that you’d be able to beat the FairTax with any type of MLM scheme for any great length of time.
Most tax scammers eventually wind up in prison.
I believe that the majority of Americans are honest people. Those who have a criminal mentality now will have a criminal mentality with a FairTax.
I also believe that when those who illegally evade income taxes come to understand that everyone is being treated with equality under the tax law, they will have a tendency to be more honest.
Those who insist on gaming the system deserve to be caught and punished to the full extent of the law.
BTW, your seminars will be subject to the FairTax!
“If and when the FT (not likely) is passed I will hold seminars telling people how to beat it. I think $2,000 for a two day session.”
Given your attitude of me-me-me, if you really thought that would be a likely outcome, you would be strongly supporting the FT. And yet you oppose it.
Could it be that you are concerned that you would not be nearly as successful in gaming the FT as you are the current system and oppose it for that reason?
