Smashy agrees with RR, what a big fucking suprise. If RR were less allegedly successful, we would have to read his horeshit posts. ---

OK, SFG, you are telling me that a flour tortilla filled with chicken and rolled with open ends covered in sour cream sauce on a plate between rice and refried beans is not an enchilada? Exactly which brand of crack have you been smoking? It is a nontraditional enchilada, to be sure, but so is one of MOL’s mother-of-all-enchiladas that looks like groceries on a plate. ---

> [@Rand\_Rover](#): > > I help people invest in the most tax-efficient way. So, I’m like Eddie Willers or the wet blanket after he dries up and helps Hank. Jim Taggart got rich (or “attempted to get more rich” is probably the better way to put it) by using influence to get government handouts. That’s not anything like what I do. So I take it that none of your clients have benefited from government bailout money? Have you ever refused a customer on moral grounds? ---

> [@Rand\_Rover](#): > > Edit to address your edit: no, and I don’t really understand the question. Could you ever envision a scenario where you’d turn down a client because you don’t like how he got his money or how he was going to spend the money you saved him? Let’s say this person who got his money from a morally questionable but still technically legal manner. [Blackwater Security](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackwater_Worldwide) would be a perfect example of that in my opinion. They reap enormous profit (money extorted from the taxpayers through threat of force) in order to perpetuate an aggressive military action towards a country that posed no threat to us. Suppose a client loudly proclaimed that he was going to spend that money you saved him on hookers and bottles of [Cristal](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cristal_(champagne)), or he was going to light his cigars with hundred dollar bills just to celebrate the sheer joy of avoiding giving money to the government. Not a penny is going towards venture capital to create new jobs. ---

> [@Blalron](#): > > What would you do with yourself if Congress greatly simplified the tax code, so that Tax Lawyers are obsolete and TurboTax can take care of everything? Practice a different kind of law, probably a different kind of tax law (ie, state and local). But that is so unlikely to happen that it isn’t a meaningful question. ---

Hey MOL, I got a bottle of Elijah Craig, and it’s pretty tasty! I don’t like the cork though–it’s all big and floppy and holey, and makes me think it may break off at some point (guess I better drink it fast). ---
