    It's almost like Democrat/leftist ideas on bigger government and creating massive tax-consuming Leviathans, don't work! And if we localized the enforcement of tax laws, and abolished the IRS and put in a flat tax, it would become far harder to create shell companies due to being far more difficult to hide illegal activities from local governments because they have far less to focus on, and it would become pointless to hide one's wealth if the cost of doing so were greater than the reward of hiding it due to a much simpler and smaller tax payment!

    the crux of the matter is H. Clinton is the one promising to crack down on this type of corporate activity when herself is involved in the same activity

    Comes as no surprise and just further goes to showcase her and her husbands vanity as they preach their hypocrisy to the masses. I doubt this will have any impact on Clinton followers, I mean she has no record to stand on, failed everything she has attempted to do, has had 30 scandals between her and her husband in the last 20 years. I mean she can't even handle email or classified information properly, dem's seem to have no problem deep throating whatever bullshit concoction that Clintons say/do.

    Yes, while the republican front runner claims that his tax reductions on corporations will be so low, that the loopholes he claims to close will be redundant:

    https://www.donaldjtrump.com/positions/tax-reform

    Reducing or eliminating some corporate loopholes that cater to special interests, as well as deductions made unnecessary or redundant by the new lower tax rate on corporations and business income. We will also phase in a reasonable cap on the deductibility of business interest expenses.
    So, that your choice. Someone who claims to fight them, but uses them or someone who most likely uses them and plans to make corporate taxes so low that these would be redundant. There is the option to not bother with either, instead if everything being a dick measuring contest...

    I'm sorry, but 'failed everything she has attempted to do' means you are deep throating some bullshit as well... As I just said to Vyxn, deep throating competition goes away with the dick measuring contest. Actually posting your issue goes much farther than insulting her perceived support.
