What's wrong with that? Salaries are a deductible expense. Would you rather pay it to a valuable officer of the corporation (who will spend much of it for living expenses, thereby helping the economy) or burn it in senseless and wasteful taxes? Salaries are taxed also.------------------ "To avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing." Aristotle IP: Logged |

Obviously you have yet to read this article--or review what this study concluded. not necessarily groundbreaking news, but the current findings and the direction of the trends are. IP: Logged | |
