    You hit the nail on the head! If only I had some mod-points laying around ;)

  2. Since when was Google Tax Supported? on No Such Thing As a Tax-Free Lunch At Google? · · Score: 2
    WTF?!?

    "And I have to pay taxes to support free meals for those Google employees."

    I don't think this guy knows what he's talking about ....

  3. Re:*yawn* on Inside Obama's Twitter Blitz On the Payroll Tax · · Score: 1

    It might be worth noting that for some businesses, partnerships, sole proprietorships and, some LLCs, personal income taxes of the owners include the business profits. While I'm not sure on the millionaire surtax specifically, anything that could significantly impact a business owners personal tax rate could significantly impact the businesses cash flow. I can definitely see some one making decisions based on that.

  4. Re:Creation of works in the first place on Has Any Creative Work Failed Because of Piracy? · · Score: 1

    That business failed because both kinds of work dried up. There was a lot of cost pressure on commercials so that side did poorly. The low budget film work endid because of piracy.

    People are giving that business up because they can't even make their production costs back. The work ends up on the internet, they can't get theatrical release, and they can't sell legitimate copies, either as physical media or downloads.

    I would have to say your original analysis makes much sense. It sounds more like larger players are closing the doors for small time production.
