Politics / Re: Nigeria In 2065 - Pics by Daverytimes(m): 8:27pm On Oct 06, 2020
Rickmann:



We've wasted 60years already...what makes u think we can achieve this in less than 50 years...

China wasted their first 40 years (after their Civil War) and in just 30 they have become a superpower.
It's been 50 since for Nigeria and this country unlike China was and in many ways remains bitterly fractured, regardless all these things are possible in the lifetime of someone in their 20s.
Growth takes time.
Think of it like this, most billionaires have said that to make their first billion probably took them 2 to 3 decades, but making another billion from 1 billion can take as little as a year, then the next billion in even shorter time.

Who is the racist between Trump and Biden?

Biden is far worse dangerous to blacks than any of the Republican Aspirants sin 1776, yet they wee all label racists be it McCain or Romney, they press called them racist in order to win black votes.

The Blacks are now getting wiser

"The blacks", lol.

What’s surprising is that Armenia and Russia are in the Collective Security Treaty Organization. By now Russia should be Fighting in defense of Armenia

Nagono-Karabakh is not Armenia, the CSTO only kicks in when Armenia is attacked, which is why Azerbaijan is very careful in not attacking Armenia proper and denies downing any jets in Armenian airspace.

To recap, NK is not Armenia, Russia is not obligated to help Armenia keep hold of a territory that the UN officially recognized as Azerbaijani. And even if they wanted to help Armenia, it takes a while to build up forces, it's only been 5 days, and the logistics of getting additional troops to Armenia from Russia is not easy.

Azerbaijan would have huge losses obviously due to the fact that they are attacking positions with entrenched troops. U must expect huge losses but I think Armenia and it's ally are having a beating.

Sorry you haven't laid a thing, your argument seems to be based on moral( Feelings) while I've stuck to the legality of it.

Not believing the NYT story doesn't negate both of our points and arguments.
For reference I stated all of it is predicated on both of us believing the story.
They don't send people to Jail for feelings but they do send them to jail for crimes committed. you seem to have not found any right now.

And to answer your last question, I posted it cuz it's news
They won Pulitzer prizes for Russia collusion story which turns out to be false so go figure.

Alright

Daverytimes:


You are being pedantic and thats the only way you seem to argue

The biggest differentiator between tax evasion and tax avoidance is who commits it and how much wealth they have. The ultimate goal of both is to avoid paying taxes at all cost, the motives are the same.
Donald trump is engaging his gang of lawyers to make sure that he does not pay a cent to the country he claims to be a patriot, fine, its perfectly legal and he is well within his right to be a slimeball.

What is at play however and a reason why he is being investigated by New York attorney general is the possible overinflation of the tax deductions he recieved on his house in Sevens springs which he claimed was an investment property and was thus getting conservation-easement deduction, and as the article said "The Seven Springs conservation-easement deduction is one of four that Mr. Trump has claimed over the years. While his use of these deductions is widely known, his tax records show that they represent the lion’s share of his charitable giving — about $119.3 million of roughly $130 million in personal and corporate charitable contributions reported to the I.R.S." In order words, donating money to yourself and reporting it as charity, what a joke.

Final time engaging in this though, hope your blinders clear at some point.

And all this is predicted on both of us believing the New York Times story which i simply don't believe.

The biggest differentiator is one is legal and widely used by most corporate entities and individual while the other is not.

Since when did conservation easement become a crime? IRS could've challenged it in court but alas it was legal? you're yet to show me the crime committed that'll send him to prison.

I checked the Biden tax pdf it was legit.
And yes being pedantic in business can mean the difference between huge profit and loss.

Am glad you asked, here is a link to his Tax returns, something Donald Trump would have provided if he did not have anything to hide. As we are seeing, it seems he has a whole lot to hide.

Brush up on your tax avoidance knowledge fascinating topic (BFN 201 lol)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_avoidance
All big companies look for ways to reduce their tax

What he did is perfectly legal. If you lose money doing business you get a tax break simple as ABC Even nww York times doesn't suggest illegality.

As slimy as always, mr legality,

Is your guy, who claims to be the best businessman, an incompetent idiot who was loosing money for over a decade or is he a crook cooking the books.

Its a simple quetion.

Also, according to the article that am sure you did not read

"Mr. Trump classified the estate (Seven springs estate) an investment property, as distinct from a personal residence. Since then, he has written off $2.2 million in property taxes as a business expense even as his 2017 tax law allowed individuals to write off only $10,000 in property taxes a year".

Seems your guy cannot even follow HIS OWN laws, funny that.

Lol you're naive, I'm sure you didn't read the article, it doesn't say he evaded tax. It's much more complex than that. There was no ILLEGALITY, he paid the legally required amount it was that low due to millions of losses in previous years.

My guy, it is clearly evident that you are the one that did not read the article.

He had paid no income taxes at all in 10 of the previous 15 years — largely because he reported losing much more money than he made.

Its either Donald Trump is the most incompetent idiot on the planet or he was fudging the books to not pay taxes for 10 out of 15 years.

Choose one.

For comparison, Joe Biden paid 3.7 MILLION in JUST 2017 alone, yet Donald Trump a billionaire only paid 750 Dollars.

Winston was not just a racist he was a white supremacist. He usually referred to Africans and Indians as savages or primitive, and he oversaw (And actively contributed) to the deaths of 3 million Indians back in the 1940s. His only redeeming quality was seeing Britain through the war, apart from that the guy was a pile of sh!t.

You are absolutely correct, this was the right charge, easy to prove and much easier to get a conviction than a murder charge. The prosecutors know what they are doing.

Nwabiaraure (F) meaning a Child (she) born with pride

Paraure is a rare Surname in Igbo land. You hardly find it as a first_name.

God bless your concept. Amazing!

*50 years time

I see someone doing something. That's great

At the beginning of this century if you told me Igbo would go extinct within 30 years I would believe you, but a lot has happend in 20 years.
Thankfully Igbo as a language is not going anywhere, a revival effort has started and will continue.
