1. They pretend that each rich VIP as tax payer, who still falls in the traps of Tax fraud research, is a complete idiot (said an expert for double taxation treaties of Switzerland yesterday). If he or her or any company do not understand the principles of hiding income of profits behind sophisticated vehicles, the stupid cannot be helped anymore.
2. Same Swiss professor confirmed my own experience: All Swiss tax authorities, in all charges, help lawyers and accounting firms in finding ways of LEGAL tax evasion - with trusts on Cayman or Jersey, Stiftungen in Liechtenstein, mixed or holding companies in Switzerland, so that all rich companies and persons outside Switzerland would no longer be forced to pay taxes at home - outside tax heaven nations.
3. Only the most rich persons can finance such expensive advisers for tax fraud: And therefore Middle Class and Poor pay almost all charges of nations at home alone - accounting and Tax Fraud being the highest crimes, reaching billions of Dollars or Euros. There is no super-rich VIP who would not cultivate the philosophy of tax evasion - and so only a few crumbs fall inside their proper nations.
4. There are thousands of legal systems for tax evasion, with contracts and constructions for turnovers and sales, profits for which land outside high-tax countries. You can arrange price politics, arrange for licence fees, finance, technical and engineering consulting, management fees, lease and lease-back, finance and own-bank institutions of big companies, societies with privileges in Switzerland and any other tax haven, governed by non-Swiss shareholders. Then profits go into low or zero-tax nations, to the detriment of the other 180 Nations. The total damage amounts to wide over 100 trillions of Euros since 1960.
5. The duty to give information (Auskunftspflicht) in direction of home authorities can so not reach about 99 percent of all tax paying societies and persons. Therefore, the whole G-20 fuss was a bad trick for middle class and poor with high stupidity in those matters. It seems that Obama, Brown, Merkel and Steinbrueck play all the time dirty games with honest folks. They can be sure that such persons would not understand articles like this one here.
6. The illegal tax fraud produces a damage for 10 percent at the highest. But 90 percent of tax fraud is done by highly legalized systems of accounting, solely in favour of the richest VIP and shareholders. Be reminded: All governments and parliaments have legalized the highest crime on Earth, paid by Middle Class and the Poor - accounting and tax fraud.
7. The agreements between USA and EU with Switzerland (and other tax heaven countries) are a complete fake. The home nations must know almost everything about tax fraud persons, before asking and then getting answers. And even then, Swiss authorities have hundreds of possibilities to prevent giving out all details on official fraud with banks and Swiss companies in Zug, Lugano, Zurich and Schwyz - and zero information on legalized systems of accounting fraud, making together the 90 percent of damage - to the charge of those who have to finance the difference.
8. The consultants in taxes, lawyers and accounting firms, will now get a gear higher in their tricks. Today, all is prepared. The experts laugh their heads off, about the naïve ways of thinking of Obama, Geithner, Sarkozy, Berlusconi, Putin, Merkel and Steinbrueck.
So, Tax Fraud will remain unchanged, in spite of G-20 and other loud idiocies, given on to world media. The richest companies and persons will continue, cheating Middle Class and Poor, those being forced to pay all taxes honestly, like in the past. Otherwise, they will be punished heavily, although they are the sole ones, to be under State control to almost 100 percent.
The smuggling of income and fortune for persons - and of profits and capital for societies, will go on for ever - and the stupids, Middle Class and Poor, had to pay trillions in Dollars and Euros - since 1960 to 2009 - and they will all the time still to come.
