i understand you probably dont know how finace works. The company or corporation he has invested his monies into have to pay what is called a CORPORATE INCOME TAX RATE which for big companies is around 35%. Then that income is distributed to the shareholders at another tax rate of 15%. The reason his tax rate doesnt show 50% because it is a capital gains tax rate 2012 gains tax is not an income tax and it doesnt show the taxes of the company he invested his money in, just his tax rate More

Tom Wilson is the CEO of a failing company. It is a top-down organization that doesn't listen, or care about negative feedback from its employees. It is losing market share to better run companies and will continue to do so. This company does not run as a team as it once did. It consists of little fiefdoms who don't talk to one another. Underwriting, the actuaries, sales, and claims almost never coordinate their efforts. Agent feedback on noncompetitive premium rates go unanswered. More

Sri Ram should perhaps learn how successfully and silently lives of underprivileged children are being transformed by schools like St. Francis De Sales and others. Same school same teachers free of cost education given to these children who otherwise would have not been able to afford education. The problem is Sri Ram is for money and not for social service. They propagate creativity exercises development but more a facade than anything else. Show me a clear difference in problem solving More

Ok according to the Girl Scouts website there are 3.7 million little uniformed cookie sales reps. They sell $734 million in cookies. That's approximately $200 per scout. The article said most of the money goes to the local council tax bandss. I think council is another word for administration. Cut the overhead and save a hairy orange primate. Maybe they wouldn't need to sell anything at all, just collect what they need for camping and crafts and call it a day. I don't think the actual More

let me understand...so, we tax the hell out of our working sector to pay for the unemployed to build bridges...that about right? what happens when we're done team building days bridges, jim? we know we're in the hole another 900B a year..we know that. but, what's on the other side of this grand plan? back in the post war days we at least had the position of #1 in the world economy. now, we're battling several other economies for that stature. we can't just rely on building cars and More

I'm six sigma black belt certification and under-employed with a masters degree and they're frustrated? I don't get it. I haven't seen anyone from the Congressional Black Caucus or from Congress in general for that matter do anything in my community (Bed-Stuy Brooklyn where there are plenty of unemployed black people) to help me. So how can they blame the president for not paying enough attention to black people. This is absurd. If anything I think the black community should reconsider More

I just had this conversation with a friend of mine a few weeks ago. He thought alimony was completely absurd. I thought it made sense from a legal standpoint, and here's why: Marriage is a contractual relationship recognized by the state (in addition, of course, to being an emotional and romantic signal to friends, family, society, etc.). In contract law, when someone does not honor the contract, they are entitled to damages. The most common form of damages are expectation damages, More

I thmotivation in the workplacek it is very good to see the publicity on such a problem. With India's population they should be able to supply a huge work force that is competent in their workplace. The system is so corrupt though so the money that is supposed to be going towards schooling isn't getting there. If this problem could be fixed there would be so many more workers to help boost India's economy and possibly fix their government problems. The first step is to inform people More

My uncle used to say that the market predicts the future. So, maybe the Fed is anticipating a further rally, and they are anticipating that things are finally starting up a business to turn around. Also, I think this .25 rise in interest rates is something of a trial ballon. The Fed trying to see if the economy is robust enough to support a tiny interest rate increase. We will know soon enough if the economy can stand this rate increase and continue to grow. Now, I can see locally More

My wife and I both play video games from time management games to time, since it is cheaper than going out to a movie, and it is a mindless way to pass time... not everyone wants to spend their free time reading Kant or going to the opera, sorry. Sometimes its just nice to do something mindless. Are we immature? Maybe, but we both have our masters degrees and make decent money. Does this mean video games are a hallmark of immaturity? Maybe as much as any pastime, like golf, camping, More
