    Probably afraid of appearing racist. And we all know how *great* Indians are at computers and all that stuff, don't we?

  10. Ah, but is it retroactive? It depends on whether the tax point is the date of payment or the date of provision.

  11. It's called revenue recognition, it's a standard thing. You don't normally do it through recurring payments like the article suggests, though; it's a purely internal transaction from deferred income to income.

    This works in reverse too. I knew a guy who had a postbox embedded in the front of his house (it was there when he bought it;
    probably installed in Victorian times) and the Royal Mail used to pay him rent. It was really just a token amount and it was less than the threshold so they'd just accumulate it it and send him a payment when it got big enough.

    The EU still has no free trade treaty with India. The UK outside the EU could get one in a hartbeat, opening up a humongous and growing market for all sorts of goods and services.

    ROFLMA. St Theresa went out there a few months ago and they told her to jolly well do the fucking off. There is so much protectionism in the Indian economy it's beyond a joke.

    If anything happens at all it'll be tiny minor concessions for the Ruperts in the banks in return for something like H1B on steroids.

    I think what he means is that people don't load their car onto a goods van and take it with them, nor do they have two cars - one at each end.

    Why is escape velocity relevant? Are we chucking the bloody things into space? I was under the impression that they're moving the other way...

    Why are we permitting corporate financially motivated intrusion into classrooms?

    1) Because without their contributions the schools can't keep the lights on, because funding education through taxation is communism which will lead to compulsory gay marriage, death panels, and Venezuela type shit.

    2) Because preventing any corporation in any way from doing anything it goshdigglydarn wants is communism which will lead to compulsory gay marriage, death panels, and Venezuela type shit.

    tl;dr It's the queers' and the commies' fault, just like it always was.
