And you are spot on in regards to Trump and the casino....if one really delves into that crock....they'd see how he basically took that company public to get out from under that debt. If I recall something shady and a top guy who worked for him was killed in a helicopter accident that put a stop to any investigation Originally Posted by WTF
Agreed. However, to the point at hand, why Trump doesn't want to disclose his tax returns, his $916 million tax loss from his casinos highlights the following,You realize when you don't pay back a debt you create income for tax purposes against the tax losses?
1. He's not as good a businessman as he purports to be. It's very possible he's lost more money than he's made during his lifetime.
2. Maybe I'm old school, but when you borrow money, you try your best to repay it. And you don't brag about how you "used, brilliantly, the laws of the country" (Trump's words) to screw your bondholders and your bankers.
3. He's taking advantage of a loophole in the tax code. While you and I agree there's nothing wrong with this, think about how the public viewed the mere existence of Romney's investments in Cayman Islands funds, which came out when he made his tax returns public. Romney didn't get any tax savings from these investments, versus what he would have paid if the funds were domiciled in the USA. Trump on the other hand saved a bundle in taxes. He basically got a $916 million tax deduction, but the $916 million didn't come out of his pocket, it came out of the pockets of his banks and bondholders.
For what it's worth, this sort of thing doesn't look good in terms of the integrity of the tax system. The loophole should have been closed, if it hasn't already. It gives leftists ammunition to incorrectly say the rich don't pay their fair share. You've got people on this board who believe the billionaire class doesn't pay taxes, and this anomaly is one of the reasons why. Originally Posted by Tiny

So if a stupid motherfucking faggot loans Assup $1000 to start another cock sucking business, and Assup, loser that he is, doesn't pay it back, then he has to count it as income. Originally Posted by friendly fred

As I mentioned earlier, Trump didn't have to recognize forgiveness of debt income. Here's how Forbes magazine described several instances where Trump avoided it,Assup told me pussies were nasty and he prefers dicks.
In the early 1990s, Trump was in deep financial trouble and pressed his lenders to restructure his debt. But, based on documents filed in bankruptcy court, Trump did not report the income from restructuring his large public borrowings. He excluded the income despite reservations expressed by his own lawyers. We do not know whether the IRS ever challenged his position.
At the time Trump renegotiated his loans, the law allowed some exceptions to reporting income from forgiveness of debt. One, since repealed, permitted a corporation to substitute its equity for outstanding debt on the grounds that the corporation was simply changing the form of its obligation from stock to bonds (the “stock-for-debt-exception”).
Under the old law, some advisers sought to extend the corporate exception, by analogy, to a partnership that exchanged its equity for its outstanding debt (a “partnership-interest-for-debt” exception). But Trump took this argument even further: He claimed that as a partner, he didn’t have to report debt forgiveness as income even if his partnership exchanged new partnership interests for the debt of a separate corporation. In effect, Trump stretched the partnership-interest-for-debt exception, which was tenuous to begin with, to a partnership-interest for-someone-else’s-debt.

As to our esteemed fellow ex-post Yssup, I doubt he was running a cocksucking business. But say he had a pussy grooming and vagina licking business. And then that business went bankrupt. Yssup probably wouldn't have the guts or the tax lawyers and accountants to be able take a position like Trump did. No offense Yssup, if you're looking down from above. And may you rest in peace.

He doesn't care how much taxes the middle class in the USA pays. Furthermore, if you followed his posts, you'd realize he is not a Trump supporter, with one exception. He heartily supports the trade war with China. He has been one of the big winners and his factories are humming, as goods formerly manufactured in China are now being made in Vietnam.
