Anyone can incorporate. \u00a0In fact for some purchases and legal actions one is required by law to incorporated. \u00a0It costs about $250 a year in Connecticut for the rest of your life, or until you go bankrupt and dissolve. \u00a0If a corporation buys property and then dissolves the the property is up for grabs in the courts.<\/p>\n

So there is the problem. \u00a0The courts. \u00a0Everything comes from lawmakers and other government employees like prosecutors, judges, police and prison guards and they are the ones who run the courts. \u00a0When a new stupid law is implemented it surely will not make the world any safer or create more justice, but rather it will expand government and ensure the livelihood of lawyers (and insurance companies, but we will get to that in a minute).<\/p>\n

The difference between paying a tax or a utility bill\u00a0if that is regulated by the government is that we can refuse to pay the utility bill. \u00a0If we refuse to pay the tax we will always owe the tax, if we refuse to pay the utility bill eventually that debt will be forgiven.<\/p>\n

The government tells the utility company what they can charge and if we want utilities we can pay the bill. \u00a0The rate is set by the government and we are told that is better than if the government were to nationalize the utility company. \u00a0It is true that we can invest in the utility and earn dividends, but what we invest in the government is lost forever.<\/p>\n

Don’t blame the utility company for high prices if the utility is regulated by the government. \u00a0All of us use programs and deductions and take advantage of our government whenever possible. \u00a0I would doubt the sanity of the man who knows he is eligible for a government program or tax deduction but prefers to pay the government more money.<\/p>\n

Maybe we think the government is good and protects our interests and the government will be fair so that utility companies can’t make too much. \u00a0In theory that is it. \u00a0So who benefits by strangling the utility companies? \u00a0Well, lawmakers of course. \u00a0It isn’t just the tax payer who pays for investigations and studies and analysis of earnings to tell us all how much a regulated utility can charge us for service. Well, I take that back. \u00a0It is taxpayers who pay for investigations and analysis, but corporations pay for the misdirection and the neglect to investigate and incentive to NOT look too closely at the figures. \u00a0Perhaps avoiding investigation costs more than the investigation, but no one keeps records on the investigations\u00a0and analyses\u00a0that are not done.<\/p>\n

So the problem is government regulation, or rather, the negotiation of regulation. \u00a0We all want everyone to be fair, and everyone is inclined to want more than what is fair. \u00a0And that is the crux of the problem: greed.<\/p>\n

companies or insurance companies or lawyers. \u00a0If we have to spend money to stay alive and protect what is ours we have to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
