The Dallas Fed has a branch here in El Paso. They posted a job listing on my university website as a 'research assistant' to an economist. I guess here they might be analyzing trade with Mexico or something.

So I was thinking about this the other day. Every evening at about the same time the Vice Presidential motorcade passes below my office window. In a few months time, it's going to be a different passenger, but to all appearances it will look exactly the same. Ideas can be pretty powerful.

Now that it's over... hmmmmm. I guess I'll try to find new and inventive ways to siphon money into places where it can't be touched by Obama's greasy KFC fingers. I've already opened a bank account overseas in Malaysia, and will get salary paid through our division out there tax free (fortunately it's recognized as a state owned company there and not operating as a foreign U.S. corporation)... then it's just wire transfers into my personal bank account here in increments under $9900 at a time... or $9500 or whatever they moved it to for avoiding the IRS's notice. On paper here, I'll appear relatively poor and not have the lazy entitelment minded fucks with their hands out getting any of my cheddar!

You were racist for the reaction? That doesn't make sense.

no i mean, I know where I'm posting and who reads in this forum... and I felt like dangling some bait out there. Sometimes I like to say shit just to get reaction for my own amusement... kind of immature but I'm bored right now.

haha.. come on man are you honestly telling me that if you knew a way to circumvent the system to keep more of your cash, you wouldn't do it?

no, i maximise all my tax deductions lawfully. i earn an ok wage and i have no problem paying taxes without making non-sequitur arguments regarding 'hand outs'.

and unless you're on a personal income of $600,000 then i fail to see why you need to get obama's 'sticky KFC hands' off your money. and if you are earning that kind of money, then making extra efforts not to pay your fair share is a disgrace.

it's greasy, not sticky...lol. Hell no I wish I had a personal income of $600K. But I don't. However I do have a legitimate CPA who always does my business and personal taxes, and I've paid my deductions accordingly. It's just fortunate for me that in the last year, my company's business operations have flourished overseas and given me more flexability.

Really, I'm not doing anything illegal. It's totally legal to get paid through a company I work for through the Malaysian based division, into a legal bank account set up over there, and make wire transfers in the amount of my choosing to anywhere I please.

If we all went back to the glory days of the '50s that so many of the Republican Party wish we were living in, this wouldn't be an option for everyone under the sun.

They "need" to increase taxes? I'm not sure when I've heard people talk about a return to the 50's. But anyway, I've worked hard to get where I am, have always paid my taxes, had to pay back $50K worth of student loans, and never asked anyone for a dime. Now because of my hard work I have a chance to take advantage of the perks that come along with it, which I fully intend on doing. Nothing wrong with that; anyone who busts their ass in school and work will have more doors open for them too.

I've paid back more than that in student loans, so don't go crying about how much you've suffered. And yes, we do need to increase taxes at some point when the economy is on the upswing again, just not immediately. How else are we going to pay for massive expenses like the Iraq War (which, btw, while I've disagreed with all along, my taxes have supported)? I'm not sure what sort of consulting you do, but I'd expect that you should know something about bottom lines, revenues vs. expenses, that sort of thing.

But until now, he's paid all of his taxes, so he deserves to evade for awhile. It's like Joe the Plumber bitching about socialism even though he has received welfare checks in the past, because "[he] paid into it"

I'm guessing that all $50K of his student loans were private loans and none of them were federally assisted, either...

if that was serious you're a douche bag and a tax evader. I only hope the IRS catches you. By the way, that isn't even a good way to avoid taxes.

it's illegal for a US citizen not to declare income from a foreign sources. Just because it is paid from a foriegn branch doesn't mean you don't have to pay taxes on it. US citizens are subject to tax on worldwide income, with certain exceptions (reduces treaty rates, etc..) evasion of taxes isn't one of those situations in which you can fail to claim foreign income. The very fact that you're keeping the payments under the 10,000 treasury notification threshold should indicate that it's not legal. Your CPA obviously knows its illegal since he advised you to stay under that amount. I hope he gets caught also.
