Thanks, beeman. That is pretty interesting.

To be consistent, I'd think there would be one or two guys on here hollering about welfare.

Farming is a business for the most part.

If there are loop holes that can work to their benefit that's the people making the rules fault. If i could find a loop hole that would let me stop my tax dollars from paying for someone's abortion i would use it.

Their are 2 owners that own the business i work at, one owns 70% and showes up a few times a year and one that owns 30% and works in the building most of the time. If it wasn't for the money of the one that owns 70% there would be no job there for me to have. I don't think less of him because he just sets back and collects the profits because like I said if not for him I wouldn't have that opportunity to make my money. He drives a Mercedes while I drive a hyundai to work and I'm ok with that.

It sounds as if your jealous of the one's that have. If so your missing life. My advice to you is make as much as you can as long as you can and try to find joy in the life you have or do the best you can to improve your life every single day until you reach that point.
Everyone wants more money but don't hate on people with more than you, have a wonderful day.


Loopholes a fancy word for tax fraud.

No, “loophole” is a term coined by a liberal because “lawful exception” doesn’t sound criminal enough.

Nate, what you should do is go to the bank, borrow 5 million dollars to start farming, and then revisit this thread in five years to tell us all about how many millions you’ve made. Anyone can do it, if you’re to be believed
