Anyone who feels as though going 'round and 'round with Little Frankie's bullshit is worth the time, you need to get out more have at it. It's clear by this point that he will never specify exactly what "trade or business" he means, perhaps because he has just enough functioning brain cells to realize that people here would likely be able to cite 50 cases holding he's wrong. Much better to babble.

As for me, I prefer the approach of the USPTO, which refuses to consider any "perpetual motion" / "free energy" designs, no matter how convincing they may look on paper, unless the inventor demonstrates they work. This, of course, has never happened. So, Frankie, show me that this nonsense has worked. Then I'll pay attention.

Which is why I'm not going to bother replying to his moronic response to my comments about the meaning of 'person'. He's not discussing things in any sense, just trolling to generate responses.

Does anyone have any clue as to what he's trying to do besides killing innocent electrons and stroking his ego?

Pretty much. That is what he did in response to my last post. He basically agreed with my conclusion that he thinks all of the experts in law and taxation are idiots and don't see the "secret meaning" he has discovered that has been in the tax code for the last 70 years or so - and thus also proved he doesn't understand Occam's Razor.

Which I guess is the equivalent of him crapping on the chess board.

That challenge has been issued to Frankie-boy in the past; and he has done nothing but tap-dance around it. He acts as if he is following the advice given by an old lawyer to a young one, in a classic lawyer's joke: when your case is weak on the law, pound (emphasize) the facts when you are in court. When your case is weak on the facts, pound the law. When your case is weak on both facts and law, pound the counsel table.

Frankie is wearing out that table with his fists.

Fine. We all lost, abjectly, you won. So, having totally demolished us all with your brilliant analytical skills, go somewhere else where the opposition is worthy of your efforts.

Most of the regulars here have education far beyond yours. At any rate, here's the challenge again: SHOW US THAT YOUR PREMISES HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL AT TRIAL, AND UPHELD BY AN APPELLATE COURT. Otherwise, you are wasting our time and yours.

As for "insults," how would you characterize the words "[j]ust because you quatlosers didn't pass 6th grade and are illiterate with english Grammar?" By the way, your sentence is ungrammatical.

You are extremely tiresome.

^^^^^ This

I would agree, having totally destroyed us, and having irrefutable proof that they are correct, Frankie should now take his position to the IRS and use a big red pen and write his position right across the return, and submit with all Zeros and a full refund requested.

Reminds me of that song, Meanings:

Meanings
Nothing more than Meanings
Trying to forget my Meaning of love
Teardrops
Rolling down on my face
Trying to forget my Meanings of love
Meanings
For all my life I'll define it
I wish I've never met you, Blacks
You'll never define again
Meanings
Wo-o-o Meanings
Wo-o-o Meanings
Again in my arms
Meanings,
Meanings like I've never lost an argument
And Meanings like I've never have defined
Again in my heart
Meanings
For all my life I'll feel it
I wish I've never met you, Blacks
You'll never define again
Meanings
Meanings like I've never lost an argument
And Meanings like I've never have defined
Again in my life
Meanings
Wo-o-o Meanings
Wo-o-o, Meanings
Again in my arms
Meanings
Wo-o-o Meanings
Wo-o-o, Meanings
Wo-o-o, yeah

Man , do any of you have any functioning brain cells ??? You say I will never specify what "trade or business" I mean !!??
Hahahahaaaaaaaaaa !
The one that includes the phrase , "performance of the functions of a public office" within the DEFINITION of "Trade or Business"!
You know , the "trade or business" that the Tax Code means , by the Tax Codes' own definition .
And , you SHOULD know , that Definition doesn't Exclude any of the other characteristics/things usually
listed/included in the "common" definition of a "trade or business" .
In other words , that Definition doesn't exclude the other things that are otherwise within the meaning of "trade or business" .
As the Tax code makes clear also . So some people don't get the notion that just what follows "includes" in the Tax Code
is the complete definition itself , without requiring any of the Other things listed in the "common" definition of "trade or business" .

I'll take the TAX CODE DEFINITION , which INCLUDES "performance of the functions of a public office" ,
in THE DEFINITION of what they say "Trade or business" MEANS .

Oh , the "experts" may see it or not . But it's in their best interest to "not see it" !
They make Millions of dollars by "keeping" their "clientele" . You think they want to ruin their business & source of income ??
You do know that even tax "experts" say the Tax code is a big "word salad" .
