Re: Freedom of choice?
I was talking about normal people like the tea party people; not the welfare leeches and people who want the government to steal money from productive types. That is who that 9 million immigrants consist of. It also includes the islamic folks who are there merely to outbreed the indigenous population and make them enslaved to sharia law at some point in the future.

Normal people do not think that Obama was born in Kenya and is a secret muslim. Normal people do not accuse others of bigotry while in the same sentence stating how they despise those who disagree with them.

You should risk it.

The above ontological example models the zero premise to BB theory. It does so by applying the relative uniformity assumption that the alleged zero event eventually ontologically progressed from the compressed alleged sub-microscopic chaos to bloom/expand into all of the present observable order, more than it models the Biblical record evidence for the existence of Jehovah, the maximal Biblical god designer.

Re: Freedom of choice?
the tea party people would all band together to help each other financially so that they could make it to britain and start from scratch.

Re: Freedom of choice?
Okay so when you said "Also, let the tea party types in america come join the people in britain you guys mock and spit upon." you already knew that even Tea Party members were allowed to emigrate from the US.
So now you want to " Get rid of those A-wipes and their rulers and we will emigrate like gang busters.", is that correct?
Why is it that we never hear any of the folk you call A-Wipes suggesting that the Tea Party members should be gotten rid of?
Why is it that no one does much more than just laugh at the Tea Party and its members?

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Hey, Brits - can you kick out all of the Dr. A types. Please. Pretty please.
That way, all of the tea party A-wipes from America will go there, leaving the USA a far better place.

Let's get back on topic
As one of the inhabitants of the countries that are facilitating this kind of behaviour, I'd like to first say "Neener neener neener, we're getting money that belongs to you" to the Brits. And second, that the only way to stop this is finally making the European Union not just a lame experiment, but a fully operational and legislative orginization, like the nation states of Europe are now. Make the nation states governments executive bodies for the laws passed in Unity!

I didn't expect you to jump for it.
I'm assuming that Brits are good enough at recognizing sarcasm, that they would not be offended by my "suggestion."

Lol.
No worries, I got it. Just the typical British understated, wry acknowledgment.

Simplifying Corporation Tax

"Simplify" in what way and how will "simplifying" in this manner help the situation?
F writes:
If you simplify the tax code, there are no loopholes that will let you "evade" taxes.
OK. So, in your view, simplifying corporation tax is the key to increasing revenues accrued from corporate tax. Is that correct?
In what way would you simplify corporation tax so that the loopholes currently being exploited would be eliminated?
I genuinely want to know.

This is very off-topic but if the Tea Party are "normal" people how did the democrats with Obama at their helm win the last two general elections?
Because I would have thought that would require a sizeable amount of "normal people" to have voted for him.....
No?

You are still paying tax, sometimes perhaps not much less than you would if you paid it all in say the UK, but you are still paying a bit less. The issue is that country X sees that tax revenue and not the UK.
I might be wrong but didn't the one of these companies that is based in Ireland (Google?) pay something like 300 million in tax in Ireland?
On billions of pounds of profit that doesn't seem very much and I'm sure the Irish corp tax isn't that much lower than the UK's.
I can check these figures if you think they are substantially wrong.
But I guess my point is that full corporation tax doesn't seem to be being paid by these companies anywhere. Even the places they nominally operate out of seem to see only a fraction of it.

So, what's your point, beyond "I'm righteous and good and anyone who disagrees with anything I say is evil and bad."?
Do you just come here to yell and call names? Or, are you trying to convince us that you are a righteous, good person?
What an odd way of going about it.
Your self-righteous indignation and temper tantrums demonstrate exactly what kind of person you are, to everyone.
So, what's your point?

One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it. Contrary to your understanding, all available evidence confirms it. --Subbie
