Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Interesting History of Income Tax William J. Federer "The only things certain are death and taxes" - Benjamin Franklin Yet few know America's interesting history of Income Tax, such as: *1787 - U.S. Constitution prohibited a "direct" Federal tax *1862 - "Revenue Tax" on incomes went into effect to finance the Union during the Civil War *1895 - Supreme Court made Income Tax unconstitutional *Woodrow Wilson thought tariffs on imports caused wars, so he worked to replace them with an Income Tax. *1913 - Income Tax was only a 1% tax on the top 1% richest people in America. *1943 - Paycheck Withholding began as an emergency effort to get funds to finance WWII. John F. Kennedy - "Lower rates of taxation will stimulate economic activity and so raise the levels of personal and corporate income as to yield within a few years an increased flow of revenues to the Federal Government." (Annual Budget Message, Jan. 17, 1963) Thomas Jefferson - "It is an encouragement to proceed as we have begun in substituting economy for taxation" (2nd Annual Message, 1802) (176 pages, includes pictures)

Download or read book Zacarias My Brother written by Abd Samad Moussaoui and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zacarias Moussaoui was arrested in the United States in August 2001. He is currently in a federal prison in Virginia, charged with "conspiring with Osama bin Laden and Al-Qaeda to murder thousands of innocent people in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania." Moussaoui , who trained to be a pilot in Oklahoma, admits to being a member of Al-Qaeda but denies involvement in the events of September 11. He has opted to defend himself. Written by his brother, Zacarias, My Brother tells the story of Zac’s life from birth to the time in 1996 when he broke contact with his family and became deeply involved with Muslim fundamentalists in London. It is a unique document about what it is to grow up a Muslim in Western Europe today and how an extremist is made. In Zacarias, My Brother, author Abd Samad Moussaoui describes the struggle that young Arab men and their families endure in Europe, seeking an education and equal opportunity, only to find most avenues of assimilation effectively barred to people of color. At the same time, he authoritatively details the techniques of the extremist sects that recruit potential terrorist cadres. Members of the Wahhabi sect have perfected a rhetoric that appeals to the wounded pride of these young Arab men, Moussaoui writes—for example, offering funds to help them complete their education. Moussaoui deplores the route taken by his brother. He is not in any way an apologist for terrorism. Even so, he shows convincingly that normal young men can end up terrorists, and suggests how and why this happens. Moussaoui shows with gripping clarity how Wahhabism distorts true Islamic faith and the threat it poses to Islam. And his book strongly suggests that the best defense against terrorist groups like the Wahhabi sect in the future is anything people can do to end racism.

Download or read book L assurance en 110 questions written by Francis Noël and published by Séfi. This book was released on 2018-11-08 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 150 questions pour tout comprendre du système des assurances. L’ouvrage reprend les différents thèmes imposés par le Code des assurances pour la formation des Agents généraux IARD. La formation protège le client et préserve les intérêts et l’image des entreprises employant des conseillers en assurance, qu’ils exercent en agence, dans le courtage ou dans les banques, à l’intérieur ou à l’extérieur. Cet apprentissage doit réunir une approche pédagogique et la réalité du terrain sans méconnaître l’importance de la communication commerciale dans l’ensemble de ces aspects. Un ouvrage technique et pratique sur l'assurance, utile à toutes les personnes concernées par la formation IARD. Agrémenté de mises en situations, ce guide réunit didactique et réalité du terrain. EXTRAIT DE 10. Comment procède une société d'assurances pour gérer les risques? L’équilibre financier s’obtient par une parfaite maîtrise des statistiques et par la mise en œuvre de certains principes : Les risques1 sont classés de manière homogène. Par exemple, les maisons des particuliers représentent une catégorie. En aucun cas, une usine ne sera intégrée dans cette catégorie. La concentration doit être bannie. C’est pour cette raison qu’en matière de prévoyance collective des clauses interdisent le transport dans le même véhicule de l’ensemble des membres de direction d’une entreprise. Parmi les risques déjà intégrés, ceux présentant une fréquence de sinistres anormale peuvent faire l’objet d’une résiliation par l’assureur. Exemple : l’assurance d’une automobile constitue le risque normal. Tous les véhicules à quatre roues font normalement partie de la mutualité (le groupe) de clients assurés. Pour préserver l’équilibre, l’entrée des « malussés » est interdite et les clients ayant de nombreux accidents voient leurs contrats résiliés. Ce rôle de sélection à l’intérieur de l’entreprise est dévolu à un secteur spécialisé dénommé la surveillance des risques. À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Francis Noël, auteur de l’ouvrage L’assurance en 110 questions, est Agent général d’assurances et professeur d’assurance en technique “dommage” . Il était précédemment responsable indemnisation en sinistres IARD “matériels, corporels et contentieux”.

Download or read book Generalized Structured Component Analysis written by Heungsun Hwang and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed by the authors, generalized structured component analysis is an alternative to two longstanding approaches to structural equation modeling: covariance structure analysis and partial least squares path modeling. Generalized structured component analysis allows researchers to evaluate the adequacy of a model as a whole, compare a model to alternative specifications, and conduct complex analyses in a straightforward manner. Generalized Structured Component Analysis: A Component-Based Approach to Structural Equation Modeling provides a detailed account of this novel statistical methodology and its various extensions. The authors present the theoretical underpinnings of generalized structured component analysis and demonstrate how it can be applied to various empirical examples. The book enables quantitative methodologists, applied researchers, and practitioners to grasp the basic concepts behind this new approach and apply it to their own research. The book emphasizes conceptual discussions throughout while relegating more technical intricacies to the chapter appendices. Most chapters compare generalized structured component analysis to partial least squares path modeling to show how the two component-based approaches differ when addressing an identical issue. The authors also offer a free, online software program (GeSCA) and an Excel-based software program (XLSTAT) for implementing the basic features of generalized structured component analysis.

Download or read book Rival States Rival Firms written by John M. Stopford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-10-17 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this theoretically original work, two distinguished authors explore the mutual interdependence of states and firms throughout the world. They show how global structural changes - in finance, technology, knowledge and politics - often impel governments to seek the help and cooperation of managers of multinational enterprises. Yet, as Professors Stopford and Strange demonstrate, this is constrained by each country's economic resources, its social structures and its political history. Based on grass-roots research into the experience of over 50 multinationals and more than 100 investment projects in three developing countries- Brazil, Malaysia and Kenya - the authors develop a matrix of agendas. They present the impact on projects of the multiple factors affecting the bargaining relationships between the government and the foreign firm at different times and in a variety of economic sectors. In conclusion they offer some guidelines for actions to both governments and firms and some points to future interdisciplinary research.
