This sounds like a good start
Bloomberg reported today that 14,700 Americans have disclosed offshore accounts subject to taxation. That’s about 28% of the 52,000 the IRS was originally interested in, but hey, it’s a start.
We’re pretty sure that we don’t have any PNCP member with offshore accounts created for tax-evasion purposes, but we are looking into it to be positive. OK, maybe some of our people, and maybe some contributors, have offshore accounts, but they’re completely legitimate–really.
Really, they are.
Funny how we haven’t heard a single word from the URW about any of this.

You Can’t Buy Politicians Like You Used To…
Our phone lines and FAX machines have been going crazy today with threatening messages from a number of prominent American banks. PNCP members have apparently been very active in the recent legislation to cap interest rates for credit card holders. Vik Torino, Chairman and CEO of Banco de Puerco apparently misspoke in front of a bank of microphones earlier today stating “What the hell good does it do us to buy these f**king Congressmen any more? They don’t do a f**king thing for us!”
PNCP proudly supports our party members who are moving forward with this important legislation.
