Tax Attorney in Oregon or Washington; Does Your Small Business Have One?
By Lance Winslow
Wholesale Bags Before the harmful effects that plastic bags could have on the environment was brought to light, people were perfectly happy to use them when they went for their weekly shop. In the past we were just as guilty as the rest and we always seemed to have a mountain of plastic bags stacked up in one of the drawers in our kitchen. These days we try to be more eco-friendly and re-use Wholesale Bags where we can. Looking around the supermarket on our last visit we noticed that plenty of other people have the same idea. More people are into recycling these days and they are really in the know when it comes to environmental issues. By using reusable Wholesale Bags less plastic varieties will need to be used. There are some official figures available that prove to be quite shocking with regards to discarded plastic. It kills sea birds and sea mammals in large quantities not to mention the number of fish that it slaughters. Other marine life such as dolphins and whales can choke on it and it doesn`t fair much better on the land. Bags made from plastic can take thousands of years to decompose on landfill sites. Therefore every effort should be made to use the reusable Wholesale Bags in the future.
http://www.bizjournals.com/portland/stories/2004/03/01/daily19.html?f=et75 Well there is a clause we should be familiar with and that is Taxation without representation. I would like to point out that if a person has a small business which they do out of their homes and they offer their services, such as house cleaning, window cleaning, general fixer upper, scrap book consulting and supplies, Amway, then in fact those individuals which are averaging about 12% of the population in Portland should be able to enjoy the right to free contract without grandstanding SOBs calling them tax evaders on a city business license issue. First of all The Great City of Portland has other problems, such as crime, drugs and the second highest unemployment regions of the country. Many small upstart businesses do not have the $70.00 fee? (I am presuming since I do not live in that fine city although enjoy the visits along the river). In this article, ?Joe Politician?, Mr. Wonderful can do no wrong (Yah right he is a politician) says that those businesses that fail to pay their city license will be brought to justice? Spare me the BS, what justice? It will bring the city 4 million in revenue? So what? They blow that on their wasteful parties to honor themselves in the city council events? This is just political rhetoric and trying to send the sound and fury elsewhere to keep the heat off yourself. This is sickening. Generally there are already too many fees, licenses, taxes, etc at every level of the blob of bureaucracy you turn and every level of government you study. So are we to listen to this, or recall his ass. I move that all small businesses immediately band together to recall this jerk (opinion). People forced out of work from bad policy and over regulation and a bizarre liberal attitude of the left wing in Portland and the whole state for that matter, deserve nothing for their squealing. City Council People of Portland hardly produce a damn thing, their infrastructure is crumbling, their sewer pipes are breaking, their bridges are corroding, their police force cannot keep up with the drugs, the transportation system is a joke and this guy wishes to attack small, home based businesses which some are lucky if they take in any money at all and other maybe a $200 per week? Gee Whiz if that does not spit in the face of free enterprise? Any politician who attacks small business should be thrown out on his ears, we employ over two-thirds of all Americans. Dah? Loser politician attorney in Portland, ought to know better. Think on it.
