accounting means war over gold ... from time to time a very rational proposal for tax & accounting-rules comes up here (guess also in US, man, you've got the thickest books about accounting I've ever seen!) - guess you could get the whole law-stuff on one or two leaves - if you only would make it fair. This use to cause the ever same reactions: During the so called "public discussion" myriads of accountants look trembling out of their holes for a while until the so called "high society" has killed again the greatest enemies they fear: transparency, democracy, fairness, equal treatment and of course any kind of logic. Finally they steal what they "own" from the society, and one of the most efficient tools they use is a tax/accounting law-system that allows them to draw the money out of the pockets of the so called citicens - iow from those people who work for the money. Accountants of course really do work - but they wouldn't have to because fair rules wouldn't need consulting for tax-purposes. Romans f.e. didn't have to pay ANY direct tax - like today's masters of universe don't when they have their residence at f.e. Bahamas, Liechtenstein or Monaco. Just a view from a false proletarian (not even children) ggg. CSCO - imo it doesn't matter what they will announce tonight - my experience is that markets still know before how they will react; pitch that I don't ggg. Surprising numbers, he? The brainwalls have brought their tax-gifts to wallmarts and the productivity increases after lots of layoffs - surprise, surprise. Futures have bounced first but seem to calibrate out in a flat region.
