Hank,
 
I understand your post was to Stan, but it was a public post so I'll  
respond.  
 
Read your post.  If it takes that long, and the story has to be  that 
convoluted, to explain what's wrong with the tax system, there's not  much 
fundamentally wrong. 
 
If the rich would like to move overseas - that's great.  The money  these 
guys make is obscene.  For the most part it's greed hijacking  corporations for 
personal gain, the guy running Mobil is not a founder,  he's a Mobil-wars 
survivor.
 
You rail about the "liberal" tax system.  Again, the "conservative  
Republicans" have held both houses of the Congress for more than 20 years, the  White 
House for 18 years of the past 26 years (Reagan, Bush1, &  Bush2).  They have 
the bulk of appointments to the Supreme Court.  So  why haven't the 
"conservative Republicans" responded to this alleged  "unfairness" and straightened this 
out?  Is there some office or authority  they lack?  What is the problem?  
Their your guys Hank, why haven't  they delivered?
 
Finally, if you dont think this country isn't in deep fiscal doo-doo visit  
_www.whitehouse.gov_ (http://www.whitehouse.gov)  and just track the  national 
debt statistics - they're off the scale.  If the government  couldn't borrow 
more money - much more money - each year to operate, it would  simply go out of 
business.  Yeah, revenues are up, but expenses are WAY up  and the budget is 
not remotely balanced and hasn't been remotely balanced by  Reagan, Bush1, or 
Bush2..
 
But balancing your budget, like paying your debts, is a liberal concept and  
not of interest to "true Republican conservatives".  Right?  Look at  the 
record, believe the numbers.
