<Now define income?> Some income is produced by costly processes of prenatal care, birth, health care, day care, basic education, higher education and finally terminated with more health care and pensions. Other incomes are mainly just connected to moving cash around, with increasingly lower costs. Additionally, on a present US issue, some added value comes from boosting accounting and numbers, some from actually paying dividends. Ilmarinen However, nobody wants a good, productive, tax-paying organization to be instantly terminated and instantly transfered into tax-free dividends, just for the taxes?? My point, obviously, if accounting practises to project the future goes really wrong, it might be better to go back to slicing it all up, sell it, and pay tax free dividends for what is left?? Without going into the primary and secondary task of the investment market.
