Mockingmaya said “Tonyo: Don't lecture me on the classical formulation of "DURABLE DOCTRINE" … Ipapalunok ko sa iyo ang books ni Justice Holmes. …” What? I never mentioned this doctrine. High falutin talaga itong si pipit. Naintindihan kaya niya ang meaning ng “Durable Doctrine”? Mahina sa Interpretative Reading itong si pipit. 1 gazillion % I bet hindi niya alam kung anong doctrine ito. Hindi makakasagot pag tinanong. Ok, what does it mean and why related to taxation or juxtice oliver wendell holmes? Anosaymo? Bilis! Hehehe

The senate, to speed up the impeachment process, wants to hold preliminary hearing, to ascertain veracity/merit of impeachment complaint, witnesses that will be presented by both side, to ascertain each witness will not be wasting impeachment time with hearsay, and weed such witnesses out. Also, what questions will be asked by both side, to give both sides enough time to prepare their answers, and that there will be no ambush testimony and witnesses.

Latest to get on board the lynch mob box car of P'Noy et al, with its own showcase thrill version, Sandiganbayan issued a Hold Departure Order (HDO) on former president Arroyo. Would somebody go tell the just woke Rip Van Winkle Sandiganbayan that GMA has been incarcerated at the VMMC, under guard 24/7, and won't be going anywhere anytime soon, and Sandiganbayan's HDO is not necessary.

What is “durable doctrine” which you talked about? How is it related to taxation and Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes?

TonyO: "... HE AUTHORED THIS LAW WITH HIS COMPREHENSIVE TAX REFORM PROGRAM (CTRP) UNDER R.A. NO 8424, EFFECTIVE JAN. 1, 1998.." Even before the Tax exempt, our Tax table for overseas income was already very low (tingi lang) compared to those back home. It was the gesture of the lawmakers that counted more. Suddenly OCWs felt 'especial' as compared to other nationalities in the foreign workplace. One of the good signs that ocws (ex-ocws) like me see. The whiners only see the negative. Whiners who does not want the poor to work overseas kasi baka mabawasan ang kanilang lamang.

Your word construction is good but your selection of words are very poor. I do not understand "da kind" words no need to look it up in da dictionary cuz words used were not sentence related to me, especially when you included God in your sentence. You & Kalabog are stuck with the word "WHY", why did so many innocent children died as a result of Sendong. Day in & day out, reporters kept on repeating "bad weather" & "illegal loggers" & if you pick up a newspaper at a Filipino store, the same words are printed.

I know in 1913 the federal tax code was 400 pages, 72,536 in 2011 and may go up to 74,994 in 2012 not because Obama wants it but Congress has to find a way na walang taxpayer escapes or evades taxes.

Let me tell you MCD how shallow your knowledge of the world is. I told you that there are few skilled workers in Haiti compared to PH. There are some 11 million Pinoys all over the world as against 3.5 Haitians. Of the 3 million, two thirds of them are in Dominican Republic. A Pinoy to reach Europe, US, Australia or Canada had to travel by air. Haitians only need to travel over land to cross the Dominican Republic. Haitains are so poor they can’t afford air travel. If you are unskilled migrant worker it is evident that you earn less than your skilled worker counterpart. Hence, the ability or potential to repatriate income is less. Getz mo?.

KALI: I understand the frustration discussing or debating issues with pipit. I could relate to that. He makes statements and uses high sounding phrases that are not related at all to the subject under discussion. When challenged with facts, he runs away. The arguments keep on shifting. I begin to wonder if pipit is a mad cow or a writer suffering from foot and mouth disease. One time he claimed that Thomas Jefferson died a poor man despite owning an estate called Monticello. The fact: he was heavy in debt but not poor. Some debts were acquired upon the death of his father- in- law, as a co-maker (to a loan) for a friend and his own life style.

Here is how th phrase is to be understood: The court must try to determine how a statute should be enforced. This often happens when the existing law is ambiguous or vague and by virtue of its language places the court in quandary on how the law is to be enforced or applied in court cases. When the court makes those sweeping changes in the operation of the law, that is STATUTORY CONSTRUCTION. I am no lawyer but I understand common sense than nonsense.

I agree with the earlier impression that OFW are being fleeced from the time they leave, come back to their homeland for a vacation on Christmas, return to their workplace and repatriate their earnings. Now OFWs are exempted from paying documentary stamp tax (DST) every time they remit money (0.30 for every P200), travel tax and airport fee. It is estimated that the scrapping of DST will result in P 1.3 billion savings to the families receiving those repatriated monies. If 7gtg and the knowledgeable MCD disagree, you have every reason to challenge me. THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY.

We don't need any representation at the Senate or at the House for OFWs, otherwise the Senate has to abolish the 2 committees: committee on labor employment and human resources development, and the other is on foreign relations. If only these senators and congressmen are really serious in taking on the cudgel for labor in general and OFWs in particular then OFW is aptly represented. The legislative branch has sufficient committees that tackles issues and problems of OFW. These legislators have only to do their jobs!

The problem besetting the Supreme Court now of islas de Ladrones is that the framer of the Cory Constitution never anticipated that a retired president and an incumbent president will slug it out in the Supreme Court. GMA packed the Islas de ladrones Supreme Court with sycophants majority of which has terms beyond the term of President BS Aquino. President BS Aquino can at most appoint another Justice before his term ends. the Chief Justice should have recused himself from cases involving GMA so are the other Justices appointed by GMA likewise the Justices appointed by President BS Aquino should also recues themselves when cases involving President Aquino is elevated to the Supreme Court. That will really paralyze the Supreme Court .

Gubot pa sa lukot if we subscribe to the notion that every sector should have representation in the Senate and in the House when there are committees that supposed to tackle an issue that concerns a particular sector. If OFW is okayed as far as representation then other sectors will follow suit. The domestic local maids (katulong) will later ask for representation, the youth group, & the senior citizens. The public school teachers as well as the lowly paid non-management gov't employees such clerks and drivers will follow suit. The bureaucracy will be getting crazy as it becomes highly politicized!

The Filipino people must learn from vicious corrupt practices of some politicians, judges, generals, policemen & so forth. Imbecile & corrupt politicians should not be re-elected. Remember that "human folly comes in all shapes & sizes." Those who imagine they are wiser (graduates of elitist schools: Ateneo, UST, La Salle, etc.) than others may well be the most dangerous." Of course, there're some intellectual theorists who argued that elitism is inescapable element in democracy, or any activity. It may true that all democracies are concealed oligarchy, but their power is just a paper tiger without the power of your votes: "We The Filipino People". Please support President Aquino's sincere effort to establish a genuine, transparent & strong Philippine democracy.

In the news! Niel Tupas Jr., of the bootlickers of KUMANDER WANGWANG is fishing for evidences against CJ Corona. Because Wangwang's allegations that Corona has been protecting GMA as far as decisions of SC are concerned don't hold water, now the Wangwang's sycophants is targeting Corona's SALN (statement of assets & liabilities) which they claimed the latter have not submitted in clear violation of the law and according to these bootlickers constitute an impeachable offense! These sipsips are so desperate that probably they would bark that Macoy's ghost did bribe Corona into making beneficiary-farmers as the real lot owners of Hacienda Luisita. And to think that was a collective decision of SC justices with the CJ's vote does not exceed 1.

And because dividends, unlike salaries and bonuses, are NOT tax-deductible, the corporation must also pay taxes on them.

CrookLPIF- talagang kapalmuks ka! LOL! What do you mean by "Mababaw kang magisip! You just don't get my point! It is just a waste of our time to debate an unending issue that you are not good at, so please stop being a SORE LOSER! OK? " What point? The only point here is that you tried to sound authoritative but can't defend your statement - " CORPORATION PAY NO TAX"! Mokong- I am not even debating with you! I am telling you off! Don't you understand that or are you so dense your brain (if ever you have one) is not in gear when you post anything in this forum! Filipinos like you- mayabang, Hambog at puro forma lang that makes many AMPAW like you!

PNL: I've been reading some PNoy bashers lately, I'm wondering who they really want to rule the country. Give them an honest leader, yet they want someone else! Do you have a list of highly qualified LEADERS that have the potential leadership who can turn around the country in a year after 2016? I want to hear from these bashers who they really want! What must be done to transform our system and our economy? What must we do first? ANO BA TALAGA ANG GUSTO NATIN???

OF OFW/OCW and the POEA: From what I was told (NOT by that crook LPIF)- OFW/OCW has to register with the POEA to get tax free status of the their foreign sourced income. NOW- I hope it is true. BTW- LPIF you crook- just in case you are tempted to interject here-- DON'T! Your opinion about taxation is always a suspect until you explain your earlier generalization of " CORPORATION PAY NO TAX". OCW and OFW are honestly trying to make a living -- they do not need any advice from a crook like you to manipulate their tax return!

GFJBHEDF said of Penoy “…P'Noy, all his life, til mom passed on in 09, P'Noy lived with mama, even when he was already a congressman. like Kim Jong Il, is a heavy smoker. Hitler, despite many women in his life, (platonic?), never married, only married Eva Braun just b4 they committed suicide.” Eureka, why chose Penoy as person of the year? A non-performing mama’s boy, heavy smoker, a Hitler, at bakla pa kuno. That’s why in the last Presidential election, my choice was Dick Gordon or Gibo Teodoro. But because Dick was not winnable, si Gibo na lang ibinoto ko.

Crook LPIF-- Let's get this straight- I am not debating with you- I am telling you off that your statement "Corporation Pay No Tax" is so stupidly wrong. Corporation may escape from paying tax because of avoidance or at least minimize it by taking advantage of loopholes But to say that outright that "Corporation Pay No Tax" with no qualification at all -as if it is a right by law--is the height of stupidity. I am not a loser here becx there is no debate. BUT YOU Mokong- is a born loser-- palapad ka ng papel na-busted ka rito! Your hangin is worst than the Santa Ana wind!

The 188 Philippine congressmen that signed and impeached CJ Corona on the malodorous 8 point hearsay based complain submitted to the senate, if the senate impeachment trial pushes through, as it should, should it pass the preliminary hearing stage, which I doubt, will emerge looking more moronic/goofy/stupid. They are hanging on Corona's supposedly undeclared Bellagio Condo in his 2010 SALN as the one that they are convinced will break the camel's back, & convict CJ Corona. Well, if that's all, then they will emerge the laughing stock, because JC Corona and wife don't own the Bellagio condo.

here is a news clip from Manila Standard Jan 3/12- "THE lead prosecutor in the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Renato Corona on Monday admitted that the move to unseat him was not about the rule of law but his close ties to former President and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo."-- SO in the Philippines - association with someone is a crime? Perhaps, this is justified if one is closely associated with that tax crook LPIF!

1 UP concluded “Korek ka dyan Tony0 when arguing with pipit. Talking about dividends: they come in many forms such as cash dividends, property dividends, stock dividends, and liquidating dividends. Post nang post… dividends: they come in many forms such as cash dividends, property dividends, stock dividends, and liquidating dividends.” Korekek, dre. Of all these different kinds of “dividends” STOCK DIVIDEND is not treated as income, hence, exempted from income tax, because the corporation’s accumulated profits are not yet actually distributed to and realized by the stockholders, All the other types of dividends are REALIZED INCOME, hence, subject to income tax. LIQUIDATING DIVIDEND is treated as CAPITAL GAIN. Pipit, capiz?

Grabe talaga ang paglaganap ng "yellow biased media". How could P-noy be a person of the year? There are no evidence of his acts except for going only after GMA. Malas lang ni GMA kasi siya lang ang pangulo na naglakas loob na pakialaman ang pag aari ng mga Cojuangco (luisita). It's payback time for her. OFW's are the best candidates for this award or maybe some Filipinos out there who really make the country proud because of their achievements. Sa mga kababayan natin, sana magising po tayo sa katotohanan at huwag sa mga ibinabalita o napapanood lamang, wala na po ng credibility sa ating media..

Pork barrel na yan, "talagang pork" masyadong mataba.Sa laki ng pork nila kaya dumarami ang mahihirap, walang silbi ang pork na yan. Multi-cab? lakad na lang, kaya lumaki ang mga katawan ayaw maglakad. Dapat pinapatayo yan ng mga bahay sa secure na lugar siguro nababasan pa ang mahihirap natin. Bagohin ang "pork" na yan dapat enegosyo yan ng goberno, magpatayo ng bahay para sa mahihirap pahulogan mo sa kanila ng mga ilang taon,kasi sa dami ng mahirap kung puro libre wala ding mangyari pordoy ang goberno tapos ang hilig pa nilang magparami ng anak, pag may problema sinisisi ang goberno samantalang hindi naman sila natututo sa buhay nila, paggawa ng anak para lang lalong pusoy sa kanila.

Phreng Deo said “Actually, all businesses are subject to Income Taxes whether they are in the U.S., RP or Timbuktu…” In Pinas, there are those not paying their correct taxes “…because they will always have with "maboteng" usapan with the BIR. You see the difference?” korekek ka diyan. That’s the reason why Pinas TAX EFFORT RATIO (12.3 %. 17% DURING FVR ADMINISTRATION) is below par link LINK Dre, as a CPA, what did you do before you migrated to the tates? Nakipag “"maboteng" usapan ka with the BIR”? To minimize tax evasion, Congress must repeal the law on “Secrecy of Bank Deposit” under R.A. No. 1405 para huli lahat ang unexplained wealth based on NETWORTH TAX AUDIT system, like in the tates.

Sensing/realizing P'Noy et al railroaded, 8 pointer complaint, to the senate don't hold water upon scrutiny, house of Rep Niel Tupas Jr confesses, "CJ impeachment is not due to law, but due to SC CJ closeness to GMA." Baloney! It's a retribution for GMA and Corona giving hacienda Luisita to its rightful owners, deprived by the Cojoangcos/Aquinos for neigh forty years, the long suffering worker-farmers. Does P'Noy care for the poor, down and out? It's the same as asking, "How much mud/putic did his shoes stepped on his wink of an eye shuttle to CDO for a quick photo-op and quick exit?"

Sendong's aftermath & GFJBHED's comment, "How far do you think the Aquinos, Marcoses, Arroyos" etc. "to name a few, would get in US business and politics? Not near as good as staying home in the Phil. Only wage earners are OFW. Trapos will always be political crooks." Agree my view; victims of Sendong & political crooks are connected. Many yrs parents of Sendong victims living near river banks knew the area was dangerous & laws against illegal logging but parents had to 'put food on the table for their children', hence parents had to bear living 'between a rock & a hard place'. Arroyo names were elected, Ch Justice Corona's wife was rpted w/ 4 jobs in 1 company so on & on. Time not to vote anyone in any elective office if the candidate's name will continue political dynasties?

F.Y.I. : Cojuangco is the uncle of incumbent Pres. Pnoy Aquino. The SC, dominated by appointees of former Pres. Arroyo rules in favor of Danding in his controversial 20% stake. The SC ruled that businessman Eduardo “Danding” Cojuangco’s 20-percent stake in San Miguel Corp. does not form part of the so-called coco levy funds and does not belong to the Philippine government. Those who concurred with the ruling were Chief Justice Renato Corona and SC Associate Justices Presbitero Velasco, Teresita Leonardo-De Castro, Mariano del Castillo, Roberto Abad, and Martin Villarama. Those who dissented were SC Associate Justices Conchita Carpio-Morales, Arturo Brion, Jose Mendoza, and Maria Lourdes Sereno.

F.Y.I. : A fraternity brother of Corona in the Court of Appeals (CA) is reportedly spearheading a campaign among the CA justices for the issuance of a manifesto expressing their support for the Chief Justice and calling for the protection of the Judiciary. Such call by his fraternity brothers and other supporters is expected, but hitching this partisan cause to a grand call to protect the independence of the Judiciary is wrong. Obviously Corona is not the Judiciary, and the Judiciary is not CJ Corona. We could say the same thing about the House of Representatives. 188 signatures but majority coerced with the threat of withholding PORK by firing Mandanas who was the Chief of the Ways and Means committee?? One Tongressman is not the Whole LEGISLATIVE BODY.

Pipit, suppose you acquired your house and lot for US$100,000 but its market value today is US$500,000. The State of California needs your property for public improvement. It confiscated your property via its power of eminent domain but compensated you with US$500,000. You gained US$400,000. Assuming you pay 30% income tax on this gain (i.e., US$400,000 x 30% or US$12,000) magaabono ka pa ng US$12,000 to restore your house and lot valued at US$500,000. You have a problem, Did you get richer by US$400,000 to be liable to income tax for US$12,000? Did you realize income from the disposition of your property? The answer is Oliver Wendell Holmes doctrine. Kindly explain if you understood Holmes.

Mockingmaya said “Re Enrile: ‘Corona may escape trial.’ Only an imbecile Senate will let a corrupt big fish off the hook based on shallow legal technicality…” Dre, if the Senate Trial Court finds the ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT5 null and void, it’s duty is to declare it invalid and without force and effect. It follows, CJ Corona will be acquitted by the Senate Trial Court. Kuha mo? ANOSAYMO?

“Tupas said the Corona property was acquired in 2009 but is not stated in his SALn for 2010. There was, however, an admission from the prosecution team that it has no copy of his SALN, or if it has, then it could have been obtained illegally and therefore inadmissible evidence in the Senate Trial Court.” LINK What? If the House has no copy of CJ Corona’s SALN, how in heaven did it conclude that Corona did not report this property in his SALN? If it has a copy, how in hell did it get a copy of the SALN? If it illegally obtained a copy this SALN, then it is inadmissible as illegally obtained evidence. Moreover, this is not mentioned in the ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT, hence, may not be raised in the trial. WATSDAMATER WITH REP. TUPAS?

“THE Senate secretariat yesterday recommended the HOLDING OF A PRE-TRIAL CONFERENCE BEFORE THE ACTUAL IMPEACHMENT TRIAL of Chief Justice Renato Corona. Impeachment court spokeswoman Valentina Cruz said the pre-trial or preliminary conference, which she stressed is just a proposal, aims to hasten the "actual trial" of the impeachment case. CORONA LAST WEEK ASKED THE IMPEACHMENT COURT TO RULE FIRST ON THE SUPPOSED DEFECTS OF THE ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT…” LINK If the Senate resolves that the ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT is null and void, e.g., coz not even read by the signatories in violation of the Rules of Impeachment, the trial is moot and academic. Otherwise, the SC may act on the petitions pending its resolution and rule that it’s null and void.
