No, no it isn't. Unless of course, you're ok with going to jail. You can't just decide what you want to call a "loss" or a "cost" for your business.
What in the world are you talking about? That still isn't a loss for the business (necessarily, unless you're selling for less than it cost you)....
It isn't semantics. Just like I said, a business can't claim unobtainable revenue as a "cost". That is ridiculous. If you want to play that game,...

Depends who you consider wealthy / poor. Theoretically, "poor" people would never have a chance at owning a home, so this tax increase will only hit...
The media is so conservative!
Yes... excellent plan. :MARIS61: That's a lot of piggy banks that would need to be filled.
