Ocean floor mining

[Akzle]

If being one of the enormous number of hard working New Zealanders ( of many blood streams not just ''white guys'' ) that are sick to death of the rort from revision of history and constant unjustifiable handouts then yes Ill happily be called a racist. But realist is a more appropriate term.

As for tax evasion its clear that there are a few here that are smoking some ''good stuff''. Are you paying tax on that?

It seems there are a few people living in glass houses

you never clarified, that you don't make use of that lazy lefty idea of weekends....
you had better not, because that would make you a hypocrite, to add to your list of "old white git"-isms

and, being what cash is, any cash transaction has already been taxed (with regards to cannabis), whether cashies are declared and offset against GST is entirely up to the trader.

i would love to live in a glass house... then i could grow some mad coca.... mangoes, avocadoes, chillies,... it'd be neat.

True! It's designed that way too!

Hush your mouth... next you'll be telling me that people vote to keep it that way.

It's generally accepted that tax evasion is costing the country somewhere in the region of 6 billion dollars.

It's not costing the country, its costing the govt who are experts in wasting whatever they rake in anyway.
Most tax avoidance is the official play by the rules kind thanks to the complexities of accounting law etc... To me it seems to be designed to suck as much money out of joe blow public as you can but let business and corporates pay SFA thanks to all the various write offs available.
I have a small business operation and the accountants fee is well worth it for what he claims back on my behalf. It seems wrong that when I make a loss I can claim back $$$$ refund but poor Joe Blow down the road at ordinary salary/wages job cant claim nothing back. Even the official tax purposes depreciation rate for my equipment is well above the real world resale value...
Then there's certain items below $500 that are definitely capital tools used in process of making stuff that take ages to wear out but are a complete loss/writeoff for tax purposes...

Of course they do... probably why the tax system never seems to calculate ones tax correctly and I either end up owing them or they end up owing me... usually the latter

Can I have some of that tax exempt and illegal stuff you are smoking? Its clearly giving you devastating clarity.

I dont understand that working an enormous amount of hours per week and seldom having holidays ( like many small businessmen ) is in some way endemic of hypocrisy.

Better that than frying my brain. Its a pity we still dont have an Air Strike Force and a stockpile of napalm to fry the cash crops.

Made sense to me. Perhaps one doesn't speak street?

Coz only small businessmen work long hours eh.

Are you going to have a party when you have it reinstalled?

erythrocytes (red blood cells) are red when oxygenated and give blood it's red colour. Plasma is a yellow straw coloured liquid, platelets are creamy coloured. Not sure what colour white blood cells are So 55% of blood is yellowish.....so how come blood doesn't look orange?

....yeah but but....

It is most certainly costing the country.

Nek minnit.... Nathan Guy allows prospecting inside a Marine Reserve....

well he probably knows where this one is, when he granted consent at least....unlike the Forest Park near us where he signed the consent without even knowing where it was.
I predict that if National gets in again then in that term there will be people taking things into their own hands.


As an aside to the Iron sand mining, usually when there's Iron sand there is other stuff like Gold.

The outfit that got the mineral lease for pretty much most of the West Coast is Chinese. I don't hold that against them . What does annoy me is that for an area of 25 million square kilometres of Ocean floor they pay a lease of only 5 mill a year .

tax only applies to jewgold. Dont use jewgold, no tax involved.
Any flat currency ('legal tender' or 'money') has been taxed at source, and is taxed again when spent.
And yes, you may absolutely have some of this

but its gonna cost you.





Five dollas (coins, not that jewcurrency paper shit) and a bag of chips.

[pritch]

The other thing which annoys me is here we have a raw resource - iron sand and what do we do? Sell it to be shipped off to other countries where they smelt and manufacture the steel. What a wasted opportunity.

You would be properly pissed off if you could see the constant procession of tankers sailing away with the methanol etc from NZs oil exploration programmes.

I apologise if you interpreted that only small businessmen work long hours. Of course its not only small businessmen that do so. But those that do work long and hard would mostly be united in condemning those from ALL sectors of society that think everything should be handed to them on a plate, with the least possible effort or contribution on their part. Irrespective of whether they are capitalists socialists or inbetween.

That is one of the most major flaws of your preferred society, it rewards those that are deliberately improvident. And I'm not condemning the genuinely needy in saying that, before you spout your toxic and implacable socialist mindset.

You dirty filthy tax avoiding capitalist!

oh bobby! I appreciate the ironing.
Ill bling you tomorow if im not too stoned
but i have a far, far greater grasp of the situation than you.

I'll do it for free. Just vote green OK? lol

[Ocean1]

I know you do.

Bottom line tax avoidance and tax evasion are both morally desperate acts that the entitlement brigade avail themselves of in order to feel as though they are getting what they deserve. Kind of sad really, but then I guess a parent's love only go so far.

You're awfully concerned about who gets slices of my earnings for someone who doesn't believe in them. As you're significantly challenged wrt financial issues I'll explain: avoiding tax you're not required to pay is neither illegal or immoral you ignorant fuckwit.

All clear?
