https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/major-food-service-company-cyber-hacked-shut-down A woman who is director in food service for hospitals has advised she was just notified that Edward Don has been cyber attacked and not able to take any orders for at least a couple of days. Edward Don is the largest provider of food service products. Here's what this means: According to the company's web site Edward Don & Company’s seven distribution centers in Chicago, Philadelphia, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, Dallas, Seattle and Los Angeles give a nationwide presence that is strategic as well as convenient. With this company having been cyber-hacked, Hospitals cannot order any food service products along with restaurants or grocery stores. Hospitals have a 72-hour supply for emergencies to feed patients. In other words they have their menus for the week, once all of that is gone then they have to dig into their emergency supplies which are only for 72 hours. It means they literally have 10 days to get this resolved. And that's just hospitals not including grocery stores and restaurants. This is a developing story, check back for updates. |

Let rich people keep their money, the poor sure don't pay their fair share either. Fuck that noise about people not paying enough in taxes. #TaxationIsTheft View Quote I guess we will have to agree to disagree. The ultra wealthy have the means to utilize loopholes note available to the average American. From the article: The idea of a regular tax on income, much less on wealth, does not appear in the country’s founding documents. In fact, Article 1 of the U.S. Constitution explicitly prohibits “direct” taxes on citizens under most circumstances. This meant that for decades, the U.S. government mainly funded itself through “indirect” taxes: tariffs and levies on consumer goods like tobacco and alcohol. With the costs of the Civil War looming, Congress imposed a national income tax in 1861. The wealthy helped force its repeal soon after the war ended. (Their pique could only have been exacerbated by the fact that the law required public disclosure. The annual income of the moguls of the day — $1.3 million for William Astor; $576,000 for Cornelius Vanderbilt — was listed in the pages of The New York Times in 1865.) and In the early years, the personal income tax worked as Congress intended, falling squarely on the richest. In 1918, only 15% of American families owed any tax. The top 1% paid 80% of the revenue raised, according to historian W. Elliot Brownlee. But a question remained: What would count as income and what wouldn’t? In 1916, a woman named Myrtle Macomber received a dividend for her Standard Oil of California shares. She owed taxes, thanks to the new law. The dividend had not come in cash, however. It came in the form of an additional share for every two shares she already held. She paid the taxes and then brought a court challenge: Yes, she’d gotten a bit richer, but she hadn’t received any money. Therefore, she argued, she’d received no “income.” Four years later, the Supreme Court agreed. In Eisner v. Macomber, the high court ruled that income derived only from proceeds. A person needed to sell an asset — stock, bond or building — and reap some money before it could be taxed. Since then, the concept that income comes only from proceeds — when gains are “realized” — has been the bedrock of the U.S. tax system. Wages are taxed. Cash dividends are taxed. Gains from selling assets are taxed. But if a taxpayer hasn’t sold anything, there is no income and therefore no tax. Contemporary critics of Macomber were plentiful and prescient. Cordell Hull, the congressman known as the “father” of the income tax, assailed the decision, according to scholar Marjorie Kornhauser. Hull predicted that tax avoidance would become common. The ruling opened a gaping loophole, Hull warned, allowing industrialists to build a company and borrow against the stock to pay living expenses. Anyone could “live upon the value” of their company stock “without selling it, and of course, without ever paying” tax, he said. So if you have an asset - let's say a stock or a house that has appreciated in value greatly - you can "borrow" against that increased value and use the money borrowed on "investments". And the money you "borrowed" will allow you to deduct the interest you paid in some cases. This article points out the absurdity of the federal income tax. It is designed to protect those who typically donate $$ to the elected officials. If you are okay with that - that's fine. I'm not. Note the following Most Americans have to work to live. When they do, they get paid — and they get taxed. The federal government considers almost every dollar workers earn to be “income,” and employers take taxes directly out of their paychecks. The Bezoses of the world have no need to be paid a salary. Bezos’ Amazon wages have long been set at the middle-class level of around $80,000 a year. and Yet this is not the self-effacing gesture it appears to be: Wages are taxed at a high rate. The top 25 wealthiest Americans reported $158 million in wages in 2018, according to the IRS data. That’s a mere 1.1% of what they listed on their tax forms as their total reported income. The rest mostly came from dividends and the sale of stock, bonds or other investments, which are taxed at lower rates than wages. If this doesn't trouble you - I don't know what to say. That is, for every $100 of wealth growth over that period, typical Americans paid $160 in taxes. Bezos paid only $1.09. |
