    Kind of like not frequenting a particular restaurant because the chef can't cook, the service is horrible, and the prices are sky high.....then having that terrible crew barge into the restaurant that you ARE eating at and shaking you down for a meal you never had at their shabby restaurant! Unbelievable!

      I wish that your concept were feasible but they have become entitled to spend incomprehensible amounts of money very very inefficiently on a system of absolute corruption. When people look at KYC and Anti-Money Laundering what they generally don't understand is that they really just don't want the competition for their own money laundering. The USA owns the biggest laundromats in the world.

      Spending it to prosecute and go after tax havens and tax avoiders sounds pretty good to me. Pretty good return on the money spent, statistically. It's not like rich people do any actual work. Slay the dragons, raid their hoards, I say.

      The irony is that most Americans don't realize that they can set up entities that allow them to 0-3% to the federal gov't annually. This is not limited to "tax havens". One could live in the best areas in the US and pay almost nothing but no-one seems to know this.

    Apart from transfer pricing issues or tax shopping, if I have a foreign company running a foreign operation and paying only foreign taxes, that makes sense to me. But this is the good old source base taxing concept. When someone invented a residence base taxing concept, everything had changed. I disagree with the residence base concept because on top of income tax, we are already paying multiple residence related taxes, like sales tax or vat, council tax, carbon tax, different types of licences, etc. The next question on how efficient tax money is spent. I always think that is related to the economic model a country has. For a true capitalist, obviously money is thought to be best spent in the market by market participants. For a socialist or welfare heavy country, there is a tendency to believe redistribtuion of wealth is best managed by the government. Well, US is still the most competitive country in the world. Taxes discourage growth and, yes, using taxes to generate income is probably an outdated comcept.

Beside the fact that "tax" is the major expense and it is my job to cut on any expenses, no one asks the question, what we could achieve, if we stop funding silly governments but invest in assets and/or employees instead...

    Taxes does not create drinking water. They relocate total market shares for goods and services but they do not create those goods and services. In order to create drinking water by a tax you most use the tax money to take resources that have to do with drinking water from somone that have them today and give them to somone else tomorrow.

    Great video. I agree that the structural causes of poverty are not likely to be simply solved by increased taxation. Education, policing, laws and the justice system, social safety net, and culture are more likely to be determinate. My city pours money down rat holes trying to solve social issues with little regard to the root causes or for the efficiency of the organizations tasked with making improvements to the lives of citizens. Personal philanthropy is more efficient and impactful at the micro scale. However, some philanthropy in the US is driven not by need but by the pet projects of the donor - be it maintaining a building glorifying some long dead ancestor, or diving into the depths to find sunk WWII battleships. These hardly meet the standard of “public goods” and yet they qualify for tax relief. I think the Australian approach may be better in that respect - that non-profit status and tax relief only goes to carefully scrutinized organizations and is granted through an act of the legislature.

    Taxation is designed for everyone. It is WITHOLDING taxes that individuals pay for their benefit, as well as companies and corporation, since it is important not to be in companies or transact in companies that ALREADY has records of TAX EVASION, FRAUD and METAL markets MANIPULATION, together with their AI that made many poverty stricken. These OFSHORE and ONSHORE companies that are not PAYING TAXES or is/are not SEC compliant in its REGISTRATION shall be DELISTED, SUSPENDED, and REMOVED. The legal practice of cessation of licenses is to be applied in order NOT TO REVERSE or FLIP end up with the same outcome.

    This could be seen as a modern version of a debate between a logician and rhetorician. I personally tend to bias rather extremely towards the logical and against the rhetorical but it is useful for entertainment or for when making certain types of arguments like in legal matters -"if the glove don't fit you must acquit ''. I'm not saying he was guilty or innocent but rather that statement is pure rhetoric and so is most of what you read from that article.
