Download or read book Taking on the Bully taxman written by Elly Foote and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A soul-wrenching tale of one family falsely accused of criminal tax evasion. Nathan and Elly arrived in Canada in 1973, after travelling five years on horseback through the three Americas. They became Canadian citizens, raised a family and carved a ranch out of the wilderness in northern British Columbia with Belgian draft horses. In 2006, inexplicably, the family was swept up in the Canada-wide wave of terror originating with the Harper government, intended to spread fear among small business owners, and, through fear, taxpayer compliance. And to divert attention from the off -shore tax havens of the rich. Trail hardened and resilient, Nathan and Elly would not allow themselves to become victims of a bully. They launched a civil lawsuit against the tax agency that attacked them without merit, mercy, or fact. They acted as their own lawyers. The battle lasted ten years. This small book has a big message: when you have the guts to stand up for what you believe, no one has power over you!

Book excerpt: For Jordan Duncan, the good life as he knows it comes to an abrupt crossroad when a mysterious client enters his LA office with allegations that the CPA firm Duncan is working for is "in bed" with the Internal Revenue Service. A former college athlete, Jordan has become a successful taxpayer advocate, representing delinquent taxpayers in negotiations with the IRS, who implement a "feed the beast" mentality. Tension is at a fever pitch in Los Angeles in 1995. The intensity mounts as hotly contested tax issues of the 1996 presidential election unfold. With the help of his politically connected girlfriend, an honorable former IRS director, and a grizzled Vietnam vet, Jordan gathers evidence to make a case. But to whom? Taking on the US Department of Treasury is no small task. The IRS seems impenetrable. Political and corporate deception is unraveled within the complex tax system. A murder ensues. The stakes are high. What started as a question of right and wrong has become a matter of life and death. Can anyone rein in this ravenous bureaucratic tax monster created by the US Congress? Based on true historical events of tax reform that exposed the abusive nature and uncontrolled power of the Internal Revenue Service, Taxman follows Jordan Duncan on a treacherous journey from the beaches of Southern California to the hallowed congressional chambers on Capitol Hill.

Download or read book The Adventures of Henry and Eulalie written by Mushin Knott and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adventures of Henry and Eulalie explores magic and science as complementary elements that take young readers on adventures between diverse worlds. Quantum physics explains the underlying mechanisms that make young Henry’s wondrous journeys plausible. We begin with 11-year-old Henry Harris seemingly passing out at baseball practice, only to learn that his consciousness has been “bilocated” back to his birth planet by three scientists, one of whom is his uncle. Henry gets a brief explanation before being sent back to his Earth body. The boy learns of his unique origins as he travels through worlds of reason and science (Sun-Rhea), the land of his birth father (Donegal), and the many magical realms of the Wildlands, home of his birth mother (Mirabel) and his soon-to-be best friend, the fairy Eulalie. Henry and Eulalie travel through the Land of Echoes, populated by ghosts and shades, to the Sky in the Lake, where they free Mirabel from her underwater prison. The pair meet colorful characters such as the Tea Cup Lady, and Miles, an old country rabbit who lives in the no-man’s land between worlds. Henry and his friends face challenges on Earth, on Sun-Rhea, the Wildlands, and the various sub-worlds therein to ultimately face the evil Mocarsto in the Crystal Cave.
Download or read book After the Miners Strike written by Paul Farmer and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-27 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this rich memoir, the first of two volumes, Paul Farmer traces the story of A39, the Cornish political theatre group he co-founded and ran from the mid-1980s to the early 1990s. Farmer offers a unique insight into A39’s creation, operation, and artistic practice during a period of convulsive political and social change. The reader is plunged into the national miners’ strike and the collapse of Cornish tin mining, the impact of Thatcherism and ‘Reaganomics’, and the experience of touring Germany on the brink of reunification, alongside the influence on A39 of writers Bertolt Brecht, John McGrath and Keith Johnstone. Farmer, a former bus driver turned artistic director, details the theatre group’s inception and development as it fought to break down social barriers, attract audiences, and survive with little more than a beaten-up Renault 12, a photocopier and two second-hand stage lights at its disposal: the book traces the progress from these raw materials to the development of an integrated community theatre practice for Cornwall. Farmer’s candour and humour enliven this unique insight into 1980s theatre and politics. It will appeal to anyone with an interest in theatre history, life in Cornwall, and the relationship between performance and society during a turbulent era.

Download or read book Four Chancellors and a Funeral written by Russell Jones and published by Unbound Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sequel nobody wants. After a decade of the Tories, could it get any worse? Spoiler – it does. Towards the end of 2021, Britain had been frogmarched into an escalating series of surreal calamities. Brexit was a disaster, the NHS was in crisis, the government was bathed head-to-toe in impropriety, senior Tories were still acting as though the public purse was their personal feed-trough, and the air crackled with anger about PartyGate. All of which led to an inglorious start to 2022: the year the UK saw two monarchs, three prime ministers and four chancellors. From Boris Johnson, who trashed our international reputation and handed billions to his mates so they could ineptly fight a pandemic while he stayed at home, shagging and acting as a super-spreader; to Liz Truss, a drive-by prime minister who managed to kill off the queen and crash the economy in a single week. And now we’re led by Rishi Sunak, who doesn’t know how to use a credit card, drives a pretend car, and grinningly promises even more poverty. Four Chancellors and a Funeral delivers more of Russell Jones’s signature scathing wit, combining a detailed historical record of 2021 and 2022, with acerbic commentary, all of it leavened by jokes at the seemingly endless maelstrom of failures, nincompoops and hypocrisies.
Download or read book Russia s Carnival written by Christoph Neidhart and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2003 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This colorfully drawn and acutely observed book explores Russia by engaging all our senses. Today's Russia smells different from the Soviet Union. The country looks and sounds different, its touch is different and its food tastes different. Thus, Christoph Neidhart argues, Russia is truly a changed country from the Soviet Union it was, little more than a decade ago. Russian society is rapidly urbanizing and modernizing, as can be perceived by all senses, including the awareness of space and the conception of time. After almost a century, space can be privately owned and freely traded; time too has become commodified. New role models and new ways to express social status are emerging. Russia has become a 'monetized' economy as the old Soviet practice of provision by networking has grown obsolete. Russia thus readies itself gradually to grow into a Western-style, middle-class society with a free market and democratic polity. The author assesses these rapid changes using the evocative metaphor of the carnival to understand the chaotic inversion of the Communist structure of society. He explores the transition's traps and shortcomings--such as the privatization of politics and the looting of the state's assets--and compares this process to the modernization Western society underwent a century earlier.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has changed forever. - Governments have expanded their reach over their citizens’ lives. - Power is being consolidated by an elite few. - The world economy has become more volatile and unpredictable. Meanwhile, the internet, a globalizing world economy, and the emergence of the developing world all present opportunities to any businessman or investor willing to make simple changes to their life. Geography is no longer a limitation for those willing to follow Andrew Henderson’s ‘Five Magic Words’ and “Go where you’re treated best.” As the world’s most sought-after expert on offshore tax planning, second passports, and global citizenship - cited by the BBC, Bloomberg, Forbes, CNN, Fox Business, and more - Mr. Henderson has condensed over a decade of investigative world travel into an unprecedented book to show entrepreneurs and investors another way to live that will enable them to keep more of their own money, live where they want, become citizens of the world, and improve their lives and the planet. Direct. Honest. Experienced. Unapologetic. Practical. Transparent. Even funny. The Nomad Capitalist will show you how to take Mr. Henderson’s “EKG” formula to: - ENHANCE your personal lifestyle - KEEP more of your money, and - GROW your money by living, investing, banking, and doing business overseas. From foreign companies to offshore accounts and from overseas investments to dual citizenship, Andrew will introduce you to a life of international proportions, storing gold in super-secret vaults, finding love in exotic locations, and improving everything from your health to your tax bill by simply “going where you’re treated best.” And the second edition of Nomad Capitalist will give you more than ever before. You will get: - More how-to information, strategies, and countries to implement into your offshore plan, - TWO completely NEW CHAPTERS on renouncing US citizenship and cryptocurrency - Updates throughout the entire book - FOUR completely revamped chapters on second passports, relationships, tax savings, and more. - How-To Action Plans at the end of every chapter, and - A brand new ending that will help you start your own personalized offshore journey. Will this book answer your unique questions about how your business can transfer price IP from Montenegro to Canada using staffing companies and GILTI? No. No book written for the general public can give you a complete and fully personalized strategy for going offshore. Nor should it. This book is not a substitute for the professional help you need to do everything the 100% legal way that Mr. Henderson promotes. What it will give you is a vision of what's possible, including second passport opportunities, offshore banking countries to use (and avoid), specific jurisdictions to consider for business and investment, and the basic framework you will need to legally lower your taxes and build the life of your dreams overseas. You will also get a look at the life of the Nomad Capitalist himself and the kind of boots-on-the-ground anecdotes and personal experiences that helped him gain the knowledge he has used to help hundreds of people go where they’re treated best. If you want to thrive in today’s world, start here. Those who want complete freedom from the world’s broken systems must become Nomad Capitalists themselves, learning to navigate the world system to reclaim their freedom and rediscover the possibilities of capitalism’s greatest promises. Get the book to see how.
