The word "murder" has specific legal definitions
Show me the legal definition of murder that says it’s not murder unless someone is found guilty. If your sister gets murdered and they never catch the killer, your sister was still murdered. This is stupid.
This is a red herring on your part and literally doesn't matter for the topic at hand nor have you contradicted me.
One of your first sentences in this comment chain is literally “this is NOT tax fraud.” That’s wrong. You are wrong. It may be difficult to catch you, but a crime being easy to get away with does not mean you’re not committing a crime
this is NOT tax fraud.” That’s wrong.
Wrong. It's not tax fraud if you have a bonified, "good faith", contract, that meets the standards as outlined in that legal article I listed. It does not matter that you and your pall know you fully intend to commit tax fraud (just don't put that in writing). And it is ALSO not tax fraud UNTIL you are convicted of tax fraud. It is NOT a crime until you convicted for the crime. They must prove you committed a crime AND you get convicted before it is a crime. This is the basics of basics of basics of criminal law in any modern country. Before then, you are only charged with crime.
Provide your source that says you are legally guilty of a crime before being found guilty of a crime.
It's not tax fraud if you have a bonified, "good faith", contract,
It’s not a “good faith” contract if you don’t have “good faith” behind it.
That’s the whole point.
Taking steps to avoid detection does not mean that you aren’t evading taxes. In fact that’s the principle action required to evade taxes
Provide your source that says you are legally guilty of a crime
I never said you’re “legally guilty” of a crime. But getting away with a crime does not mean you didn’t commit a crime, and the fact remains that you run the risk of being caught and convicted, no matter how well you cover your tracks
It’s not a “good faith” contract if you don’t have “good faith” behind it.
You're confusing actual legal terms with colloquial usage. It doesn't matter if someone actually had genuinely good faith/intentions behind a contract. If what you said was correct, a massive number of contracts would be illegal.
They must prove you committed a crime AND you get convicted before it is a crime.
So imagine this scenario. You win the lottery, and you want to share it with your family, but you don’t want them to have to pay taxes on the gift, so you write up contracts for loans, as you described, with all of your extended family that you give gifts to.
You are saying that you have not committed tax fraud by doing this, correct?
So several years later, say your nephew goes to the IRS and says, “I just can’t live with this on my conscience anymore, my uncle gave gifts to my whole family disguised as loans so we wouldn’t have to pay taxes on it,” and provides them with all necessary documentation that proves this is what you did. So the IRS takes you to court and you’re found guilty and thrown in prison for tax fraud.
You’re saying that NOW you have committed tax fraud, since you’ve been found guilty? You’re saying that your original actions weren’t a crime UNTIL several years later when your nephew turned you in?
Come on man, don’t be retarded. You committed a crime in the beginning, you just didn’t get caught until later. If what you were doing wasn’t a crime, there would be no ability for you to get caught doing it
I don't see a single link so I don't need to read your reply.
