(Huh, this is funny?)  The tax lawyer assists clients solely with their selfish monetary concerns. He helps them in their unchristian endeavor to shift their tax burden to their neighbors. He deprives the government of revenue needed for the common good. --Frederic G. Corneel We have a tax code that favors those with the best accountants. --Shane Keats Just let 'em feel that you can save 'em something on taxes and nobody will keep you out. --Warren Buffett [Definition of a corporate tax shelter:] A deal done by very smart people that, absent tax considerations, would be very stupid. --Michael J. Graetz ------------------------------- The Oldest Profession ------------------------------- A surgeon, an accountant and a lawyer were arguing about which of them was practicing the oldest profession. The surgeon said, "God created Eve from Adam's rib. Obviously, God is a surgeon, so medicine is the oldest profession." The accountant protested, "Before God created Eve from Adam's rib, he created an orderly universe from chaos. That clearly shows that God was an accountant before he was a surgeon. Accounting, then has to be the oldest profession." The lawyer sat for a moment smiling, looking at the surgeon and the accountant. "That may be true," the lawyer said shrugging his shoulders, "but who created the chaos?" ____________________________________________ Courtesy of Blake Sanford, EA in San Diego  |
