Hmm....that bit about Nevada corporations is not quite accurate. Whether you have a Nevada corporation or not, you're still legally required to pay tax on any revenue that your corporation receives. No way around that and the idea that Nevada is somehow different is a myth.

What Nevada DOES offer is a very strong legal precedent that allows you to protect your assets under a Nevada corp. In other words, if you're operating under a Nevada corp, it would be very difficult for someone to file a lawsuit against you in a way that would put your PERSONAL assets at risk. The only thing at risk would be whatever assets your Nevada corp owns.

So, forgive the tangent. But while incorporating in Nevada DOES offer some attractive benefits, it's not true that being a Nevada corp in any way makes you non-liable for taxes.

Note from MJ: Hi Tony, you're quite right and I certainly didn't mean to imply otherwise. I said Nevada "does not share information with the IRS" - and that's still quite true. This in no way relieves someone of their tax obligations in any way - and the blog post does not state that.

Hi,

Totally!

Whatever You focus Your energy on it Grows.

So, If You focus Your energy on positive growth, You'll have positive growth,

similarly, If You focus Your energy on negativity... I'll leave it for you to decide... I guess You got it.

If that's the formula, why don't we focus more on success, love, kindness for us, as well as for others?

I'd bet on the higher cash return along with incredible karmic congruity.

All the best,
Val

1. I am already being formed by a group
2. I do not need to hide my identity(because I love it)
3. My financial tracks are unmanned

In The Mix, In The Midst, In My Mind
Love is my government
In a city called Justice
Wisdom for my intellect is limitless
freedom is my income
Brotherly love entertains me with peace
And joy is becoming my entire consciousness

There is a new world that is me!

Thanks for the eye opening post Mark and the suggestions for further research.

It's a shame how many of us have fallen victim to these kinds of front groups. Many of our so called environmental groups are also front groups sponsored by the richest people on the planet.

For instance there is a hidden power agenda for promoting the theory of human caused Global Warming. And their actual goal has nothing to do with improving the environment.

Where does the Global Warming crowd get $700,000 a month to advertise on billboards in NYC?

I'm all for improving our environment but when facts are being ignored and manipulated and scientists are getting fired for speaking their minds on what they believe is the cause of Global Warming, then there's something very wrong.

I hear commercials on the radio every day warning me about the dangers of Global Warming. Where is all of the money coming from to make these commercials? In truth it's coming from big business.

So we have to ask ourselves why polluting big businesses (of course they aren't all environmentally irresponsible) want us to be terrified of Global Warming.

The answer is spelled out on pages 526 - 536 of the book, "The Creature From Jekyll Island," by G. Edward Griffin. This isn't just some conspiracy theory, there are plenty of facts and verifiable resources cited in the book that you can check yourself.

You may want to look up information in the search engines on "The Report from Iron Mountain," which was published in 1967. That may have been the blueprint behind the environmentalist movement.

I'd say we have many more problems than just obvious front groups. I believe for instance that both political parties in the United States are largely front groups.

I also believe that most of the mainstream press in the United States is a front group. The public education system is also a front group. We are taught only what they want us to learn.

Beware of the illusion of freedom.

Maybe they aren't helping with their groups, but they aren't big conspiracies. Its just people who don't know better in the end. If they knew better, they wouldn't do it, because they wouldn't like the bad karma.

It takes wisdom to know about karma, if they act like they don't know about it, then they aren't wise enough.

You Mark, on the other hand are probably almost clever enough to choose better karma.

Did you know that if you set people free that creates good karma? And did you know that freedom isn't fast cars and big houses, but the good will of fellow humans?

The only good association is one that thinks of the future of humanity. Whether or not global warming is real, trees are better than paper cups and bleached paper. AND, whether or not the smog is bad for the temperature of the Earth; IT IS bad for the quality of the air; i.e. it stinks and is worse for the human biology; end of story.

I think that's a great idea Mark!

But don't many of these groups think they're doing things that are helpful to people ("National Smoker's Alliance" being an obvious exception)?

Perhaps defining what is "helpful to people" needs to be the first step.

But when other groups (such as the "National Smoker's Alliance") deliberately set out to mislead due to greed etc, perhaps we need to first understand what drives such actions. Greed, for starters..although your proposal does have in it the possibility of GREATER financial reward for "helping people".

Mmmmmm.....harvesting people's selfish motives for the good of others....is that a nice (but nieve) thought, or can it help build a better world?

Interesting thought MJ!

yes. There are 2 and only 2 types of business models, in my estimation. One that is predicated on scarcity, the other on abundance. It's why certain esteemed internet marketers give or sell for a negligible cost, valuable information. It's also why Monsanto has to fall over themselves to create and patent their "terminator" seeds that they spread like a plague on the earth. I just gotta be biblical here for a sec and say that there does seem now to be the time of separation (sheep and goats, wheat and chaff etc.). These companies with their hidden motives and well practiced hand that works the system will live in a world where none of us have to, if we choose not. Especially if we take care of ourselves and grow our own food and live sensibly.

"Hey, here's a thought for them: how about putting just half the energy you put into propaganda into doing something helpful for people?

I theorize that will actually get you a higher cash return on the energy you invest.

Am I right?"

I totally agree
