5-5-16     Tax havens, or locales amenable to tax dodging, whether in the Caribbean, Central America, Switzerland (still the world’s top location for financial secrecy), or for that matter the state of Delaware, exist to circumvent tax laws.  Period.  And these operations are so shady that even the functionaries working in the shadows to establish such secret accounts are barely aware of exactly who owns them, where the money came from, or where it’s going.  For regulators, prosecutors and tax collectors the opacity is far worse....
  Not only are such firms unpatriotic, they are parasitic and while they’re at it, they use similar techniques—let’s not call it theft (though it is)—to avoid tax payments in the poorest places on Earth. As Oxfam reports, “the biggest burden” of tax havens “falls on the poorest people.” In the process, they only increase already oppressive levels of inequality globally.
  Tax “secrecy” specialists—people working in the money-hiding field—help rich individuals, multinational corporations, political leaders, terrorists, and organized crime groups divert cash and capital, sometimes in staggering amounts, from local economies into an obscure, complex, multi-layered global financial network that operates outside any national or international regulatory or tax system....

  In addition to public officials and billionaires, more than 500 global banks, their subsidiaries and branches, have registered at least 15,600 shell companies there using not (Panama City lawfirm) MF’s services. That word “shell” is descriptively accurate since such “companies” rarely have employees and are commonly no more than a post-office box providing a façade through which books can be doctored, taxes dodged, losses concealed, and money-laundering and other criminal actions carried out.  

  You don’t necessarily have to be rich or powerful to access the services of such offshore firms and banks, but it helps.  Some havens take anyone ready to put up a minimum of $25,000, while others demand staggering sums....
  The most alarming aspect of the Panama Papers revelations was MF’s clientele, or even its secretive practices (for 300.000 clients), but that what it does is completely “legal.”  Nor was this the first such disclosure.  In November 2014, for instance, the “Luxleaks” scandal involving a whole “menagerie of Luxembourg-based tax schemes,” as The Guardian put it, was disclosed by two whistle-blowers from the accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers. (Luxembourg is a major European tax haven.) Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, Facebook, HSBC, JPMorgan Chase, and Microsoft were on the list of its more than 350 multinational “tax avoiders.”... Apple led that list (tax haven inversion strategy), holding $181.1 billion offshore....
  Hillary’s bedrock thinking on money flowing out of the US and into the offshore world can best be seen in her support for the 2012 US-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement when she was secretary of state.  The agreement removed “barriers to US services, including financial services,” which actually simplified the process of squirreling money away in or through Panama by allowing it to flow freely into that country.... Hillary vowed, “On my watch, it (HSBC's offshoring behavior) will change.”  
Yet, in 2014, the Clinton Foundation accepted between $500,000 and $1 million from that bank....
  Ironically, Mossack Fonseca’s Panama City headquarters is located a mere seven-minute drive from the Trump International Hotel and Towers in Panama City.... As CBS News noted, in October 2015, Trump owned stock in 22 of the top 30 Fortune 500 companies ranked by their number of offshore subsidiaries.  It’s a group that has engineered 1,225 tax-haven subsidiaries holding $1.4 trillion.     http://www.thenation.com/article/when-it-comes-to-taxes-donald-trump-and-hillary-clinton-have-one-thing-in-common/

172.  Useless is the leader who is not wise in battle.  Directing your steps toward the heights I am arming you for life's struggles.   -Leaves of Morya's Garden 1924

III, ii, 19.  A short-sighted leader sets the fire behind the enemy forces, but the wise one kindles one behind his own.      -Leaves of Morya's Garden 1925


151.  But between the speaker and the crowd fly balls of light, and the centers of energies blaze clearly if the orator is not a babbler but a leader for the common good....How scintillating is the radiation of the leader, what direct arrows spurt from his shoulders, and what purple waves flow outward in defense and engender new might!  But the radiation of a babbler is furrowed with zigzags, the ends of which turn inwards.     -M:  Community 1926


154, 161.  Poor is the leader who conceals real danger.  It can be conquered only with the help of complete knowledge....If someone complicates the procession of peoples, he may receive the wreath of ignorance.  His action cannot be justified by ignorance of the laws, and it is equally improper for a leader to change the direction into reverse.      -M:  Community 1926


261.  If crowding of movement is not forestalled, then dissention is assured.... Often the growth of forces is confused with antagonism.  Often instead of calm application of a possibility the coals of hatred are fanned.     -M:  Community 1926


19.  The spiritual striving of the powerful collective spirit imprints an image of true meaning.    -M:  Agni 1929


53, 295.  As though the intensity of the battle lay only in broken bones!  But often the ordinary participants of the earthly battle do not feel its tension; only the leader realizes what occurs....It is related that the envoys from the Sage of the Mountain came to Genghis Khan.  In the coffer lay a golden chalice and multicolored vestures.  An inscription read:  "Drink from one chalice, but garb thyself with the garments of all nations."  Thus was Hierarchy indicated and the tolerance worthy of a leader.  So also let it be affirmed by broadening the Teaching of Light.  Let us give attention to the rhythm of the given Teachings--it can be seen how perception alternates with affirmation        -M:  Heart 1932


385, 399.  Strive into the future.  It is necessary to regard the present time as a bridge over a roaring current.  It is not necessary to bind the consciousness to devious conditions - they are but brushwood upon the bridge.  Usually human misfortunes arise in proportion to the delay caused by attention to the passing jolts, which it is necessary to avoid.  Every leader strives not to be delayed....But the contemporary perilous state of things has been created by the perverted thinking of the brain. Therefore let us turn to the heart once again as to our judge and leader.  Whoever shall aid his near ones to find the path of the heart shall also find his own perfection.      -Morya:  Heart 1932


562, 595.  When we ask you to propel all forces in one direction it means that you must be as taut as a bow.  One should know how to live in readiness, and such a quality also demands great training.  But do not attempt to use this heart energy for revenge - this is inadmissible....let us remember that the heart knows how to aspire toward construction.  Destruction does not issue from the heart....The flaming heart can sense where is contained true correlation or mutual supplementations.  Such requirements should be demanded of every leader.  He must have a heart open to heaven and to earth. Let us also affirm ourselves in the thought that we shall establish friendly relations with all people. One of the conditions of existence is sincerity, or to use another word, heartiness.  If this foundation is not sufficiently developed, one can strengthen it by turning to the heart.      -M:  Heart 1932


51.  When consciousness has become expanded then will become possible the affirmation of the great law of leadership.  In each field there should be applied a subtle understanding of the law of leadership; thus statesmanship must be manifest in the entire structure of life.  The act of violation of the national feeling by the pronouncements of the leader results in grave consequences.    -M:  Fiery World 1935
