If you've ever made an insane amount of money you'd soon learn the whole "write-offs" theory is a myth.

It's more ignorance than anything else and that makes it scary.

Not to mention sometimes the work involves providing people to do a service.

So what you're trying to say because it doesn't affect you....it's OK?

First of all money that is invested has already been taxed, when it was earned.

Nobody like paying taxes, but it's a fact of life. The only sure thing in life is Death and taxes.


Do you honestly think everyone should have to pay 20% of their earnings? Even people who only make 25,000 or less a year?


Here are the tax tables for 2007.

What I'm saying if I made that kind of money 250,000 and upwards, I' be as happy as a pig in slop,I woudn't be complaining. I'd look at the people who are struggling and thank the Lord I was so blessed. But some people have to complain, they are never satisfied, always wanting more more,more. Bigger and better than thy neighbor sort of thing.
