......greasy!!!!!

For some people where money is involved conscience and morality fail to exist. For some it is their God...but the weekly trek to church will provide a facade and absolve them, in their own mind!

does it really surprise anyone that Tony Merchant is on that list.

reminds me of the the lawyer on breaking bad

better call Saul

Revenue Canada likes to harass low income Canadians for relatively small issues and avoids the bigger fish because of not enough resources and no fortitude.

Harper laid off lots of tax collectors.

This is an International problem that requires cooperation among nations. But the reality is rich people have more influence and are able to hire lawyers and accountants who can "creatively" avoid taxes.

So chuck, do you think the gov. should hire more tax collectors? So that they can harass more people?wow, your backwards!

[chuckChuck]

Stonepicker. So you think it is okay for individuals and corporations to hide income in off shore tax havens to avoid paying their fair share of taxes? Why not hire more investigators to crack down on a big and growing problem?
