  • Yes I have! As a matter of fact? I'm reading a book that has lot of information on the Panama papers. Not sure I really care that much as governments use shell companies to hide black ops round the world.

    Hello Rosie:

    Not really.  These people are simply taking advantage of the US tax code..  Certainly, you deducted the interest you paid on your mortgage, and I don't want your name listed anywhere.  I COULD call your deduction a "loophole", since, as a tenant, I DON'T get it..  

    If there's something WRONG with ANY of that, it's the tax CODE - not the people who obey it.
