https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/nov/14/the-great-american-tax-haven-why-the-super-rich-love-south-dakota-trust-laws posted:In the late 70s, South Dakota’s economy was mired in deep depression, and [Governor] Janklow was prepared to do almost anything to bring in a bit of business. He sensed an opportunity in undercutting the regulations imposed by other states. At the time, national interest rates were set unusually high by the Federal Reserve, meaning that credit card companies were having to pay more to borrow funds than they could earn by lending them out, and were therefore losing money every time someone bought something. Citibank had invested heavily in credit cards, and was therefore at significant risk of going bankrupt. Gazpacho has issued a correction as of 21:03 on Oct 3, 2021 |

I know South Dakota doesn't have an income tax, but I also know Montana doesn't have a sales tax and has a notorious LLC structure that people have used to try and argue that California and other states with sales and use taxes can't compel them to pay the taxes (they can, but they're pretty much sovereign citizens).

it's the least surprising revelation ever that rich ghouls hide enormous sums of money that in a just world they wouldn't have offshore and while I'm glad that this data has been leaked, I don't know why news organizations keep expecting yet another leak revealing that fact to change anything

i don't even know how to begin parsing this data/caring, i feel like you need a degree in economics with a minor in ethics to even know what types of queries to throw together at the data. it's just a bunch of data points with no context, so you have to rely on the neoliberal "expertsphere" to do analysis, which comes with its own truckload of bias. so in the end,

The Epik leaks are digging deeper and deeper into the heart of the demon-cracker empire, y'all think it's a coincidence that the Pandora Papers are rushed out in reaction, trying to crush the Epik hack, Cablegate style?
