What I am telling you is: I don't think we SHOULD have such laws in the first place, and since we do and can't get rid of them, we should all do our best to evade/avoid them. > > If we all made 100,000 + then it wouldn't be such a question. > > AM> Why? because we'd all be victimized the same? > > You say victimized, I say contributions. See it's all about perceptions. My perception is that the world is full of people who couldn't make a dollar out of eight bits. And they all sit around and vote for laws that say *THEY* get to NOT pay taxes, while *I* get to pay taxes DOUBLE. That is victimization. --- þ Synchronet þ Generated automatically on The ANJO BBS .
