The I.R.S. exists in order to feed the Banks/Federal Reserve. If they take my money (and I have an L.L.C.) then why not take I.B.M.'s money too? After all, profit is profit. I just don't have the option/resources to effectively incorporate in the Cayman Islands.

“The most brilliant banking model in our national history was established in the first half of the eighteenth century, in Benjamin Franklin's home province of Pennsylvania. The local government created its own bank, which issued money and lent it to farmers at a modest interest. The provincial government created enough extra money to cover the interest not created in the original loans, spending it into the economy on public services. The bank was publicly owned, and the bankers it employed were public servants. The interest generated on its loans was sufficient to fund the government without taxes; and because the newly issued money came back to the government, the result was not inflationary. The Pennsylvania banking scheme was a sensible and highly workable system that was a product of American ingenuity but that never got a chance to prove itself after the colonies became a nation. It was an ironic twist, since according to Benjamin Franklin and others, restoring the power to create their own currency was a chief reason the colonists fought for independence. The bankers' money-creating machine has had two centuries of empirical testing and has proven to be a failure. It is time the sovereign right to create money is taken from a private banking elite and restored to the American people to whom it properly belongs.” -Dr. Ellen Brown

This is a famous company. They were caught as a main player in the Oil for Food kickback scam. Ever wonder how much of the money they caught on Saddam Hussein came from Flowserve kickbacks?

What are some fundamental truths on the ethics of stealing from a U.N. humanitarian program–I wonder.

When it comes time to raise your taxes, please don't complain. Enjoy your days with those who believe taxing wages is more important than taxing corporate profits. At some point the last dollar will be whipped out the last debt slave. Those who live in fear can then rejoice and marvel at the dystopia they've created.
