I know this is not how it works but they should limit the number of lawyers to what the opposite party can afford. For example if party 1 can hire 5 lawyers and party 2 can only hire one then both partys are only allowed to hire one lawyer. If this happens the law can apply to everyone evenly, like it should.

The IRS mostly comes after middle income people, not rich people. They often aren't funded well enough to go after people like Trump. Humorous that I pay more tax in a year than Trump has in 20. And I'm only making about 35k/year.
@Serfdomftw 3 жыл бұрын
the biggest group of tax avoiders are actually construction workers (contracted) and professionals such as "lawyers/attorneys/accountants/bankers" etc. Its funny really. Leagle eagle probably does the exact same sort of things with his taxes that accountants do for trump. Such as putting all lunches down as "business expenses". Driving as "business expenses" etc. Hell he could even buy his own home through a separate LLC then rent it back to him and because he travels a lot claim that as travel expenses against whichever company at the time he is supposedly doing work for. Practically everything he buys, or rents or services he obtains, could be classified as an "expense" in one way or another.
@Kobolds_in_a_trenchcoat 3 жыл бұрын
A big part of the reason why the IRS focuses on middle income people is that they are simply easier to go after. Rich can afford to hire good lawyers and accountants to hide their finances well and, if they are caught, can hire other lawyers to defend them. Most middle class struggle to hire those kind of people when they really need them, much less for dishonest tax fraud.

@what9480 3 жыл бұрын
@@EagerSpace I wouldn't say it's entirely by design. As computer software advanced, poor people generally have the easiest returns to audit because the IRS can just make a basic tax program (similar to what we all use to file taxes) for auditing. This machine can instantly audit and correct all the basic deficiencies (you report 34502 instead of 34520 as AGI for example) and auto corrects it. Wealthier people generally have more aggressive and ambitious returns often using ambiguous interpretations of the law which require court battles which the IRS isn't funded to fight. The lack of funding is intentional, though, the advancement of technology is a mere consequence.

What I learned from this video: you pay less taxes on a house if it's not your home; if your business makes enough money, you can get a tax bailout for losing money; when a renter has low income but pays the normal rental rate, the real estate company gets a tax write-off. This isn't just legal tax avoidance, this isn't just sneaky legal tax loopholes that can be exploited if you're careful, this is a tax code that blatantly benefits the absolute richest.

If i understand Trumps state of mind correctly such a statement indicates he actually failed. He will brag about his success to compensate his failure. He cannot accept failure, whenever he fails he has to lie about his "succes" or deny his failure. When his inauguration was visited by fewer people than obamas, he declared this "fake news" When Hillary clinton got way more votes than he did, he invented "voting Fraud" and imediately founded a komittee to investigate. 18 month later the komittee dissolved, they had found nothing... I believe the more inexact trumps claims are the more likely he is lying. I also believe that whenever he has a success he will be rather precise about that success. I am not able to give any example of the latter however.

My dad works in the UK and just receives a half page document with his numbers to make sure it is correct. In Portugal, even if you just have deductions and one income source, it is still 14 pages and takes about an hour or two to do.

A perfect example of a "legal" deduction that really is not, comes from my life. I own a 30 ft sailboat that I take out on Lake Michigan often. My neighbor and one of my best friends used to come out there a lot. One day he asked me if thjere was anything new going on with my job, and I told him about a new product roll out. He thought it would be good for his accounting firm, and put me in a meeting with the Senior Partner and the IT guys. He was not involved after that, and had no input on the buying decision or the project (as I knew) but since I closed the deal, he technically became a "client". Suddenly, for doing exactly what we had done for years as friends, I could have legally deducted all the costs of ownership of that boat because I was using it to "entertain clients". Moreover, if I were really criminal, I could have EASILY inflated my costs a lot. My boat is silopped in a marina run by a non-profit Conservation club and we all pitch in to do the work that any commercial marina charges a lot for, and our slip fees are far lower than commercial marinas. No auditor in the world would question me taking a $9,000 (at least) deduction when my actual costs were about $1,800 plus maybe $1,200 in depreciation. But what I actually deserved in the way of a deduction was ZERO dollars! Phil and I would have continued sailing together whether his firm did business with us or not, and there was no reason to think that doing so made any difference in my business at all.

@@CyberDoedel No, they would not. Well, they possibly would, to the extent of checking to see if $9,000 was a reasonable amount for where I have the boat - it is. And sorry, but one of my best friends is a CPA who specializes in tax law. He was the one who told me I could get away with that - also the same friend I sailed with. I don't think he thought I would ever DO it, but on the boat one day, he said something like, "You know, now that our company is your client, you could deduct all this." Here is how tax law works - Trump deducts the costs of "Seven Springs" his private family retreat, by calling it an income property and gets away with it for years. He has been claiming that deduction for a long time and has been audited in that time - nobody went after him for that, even though 2 seconds on Google would have raised a huge red flag.

What's your complaining about is essentially the way the laws written. You can under law right off a boat which is used for entertaining clients. You were at the point your friend became a client using your boat to entertain clients, the law doesn't make a distinction of how many how often or what their prior business relationship to you was. The Line in the Sand is are you using the boat to entertain clients? Step over that line and you can deduct it. Yes you could write a law which distinguishes how many times you must use the boat to entertain clients, stipulates that if your client is also your friend he's not actually a client but in doing so you're opening the door to a far more intrusive IRS. And seriously I don't want the IRS assessing my personal relationship with my clients oh, that's some creepy 1984 s*** right there

@@theultimategamer8537 Yeah, thanks. I have to agree. THat is what makes such deductions such a problem.I also joined a country club just to network with people who could send business ny way - I am not a big lover of golfing. But most of the members loved it like I love sailing! THey deducted it anyway - even though they would have been members with or without tax incentives, I'll admit - I deducted that one - because I never would have spent that money except to promote business. In fact going there often conflicted with things I really wanted to do. . But why should ANYTHING be deductible when the purpose is to make more money? What is really sad, is that I had an acquaintance in college whose parents were rich, and owned a company. THey appointed him as a VP, and paid for his college as "salary and benefits" That allowed them (through the company) to deduct his whole education! My parents could not do that and would not have tried if they could. I paid nearly $20,000 for tution, books, room and board, etc which was at the time close to the median family income! So the rich probably saved at lest $4,000/yr for sending their kid to college, and mine saved nothing. As Trump would say, I guess that makes them "smart" not total pieces of shit.
