Open Question: My husband and I were told we could form a c corporation and roll our retirement over into it without being

penalized for drawing it out before we we are 59 1/2. The company that told us about it calls it a versatile entrepreneur retirement savings account plan. They said it is legal and takes the employee retirement income security act (ERISA) and the Internal revenue Code of 1986 (IRC) into consideration. In calling around checking prices to have something like this done we were told that it is illegal to invest your retirement into a business that you will be working in. They said there was someone in Little Rock Arkansas that was doing it and that the IRS was going after them and the people who took part in it with them. Does anyone know the truth about this and how to go about getting it done if it is legal? Also we have found a business where the owner told us if we bought it we could transfer the corporation they set up for the business into our names….Is this possible and whats involved in it? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Animal Rights

To my mind, the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a
human being.
Mahatma Gandhi (statesman and philosopher)

Many animals around the world suffer from being mistreated. According to statistics collected annually by the Department of Agriculture, in the United States this year, tens of millions of animals are likely to be killed, sometimes painfully, during biomedical research; 10 billion more will be raised in factories so crowded that the animals are unable to turn around, an then killed for food. (Wise B13) Animals are mistreated in these 3 industries: entertainment, fashion, and for experiments.

Accordingly, animals in the entertainment industry are treated in hazardous means to human ends. Many animals should be living in their natural habitat, unaffected by human intrusion, and not be forced to do things that do not come naturally to them. Firstly, the wild animals in the circuses are mistreated. Many lions, elephants, and other exotic animals are not taken care of properly in the circus. Evidence shows that many circus animals are not owned by the circuses, but are leased from exotic animal dealers under seasonal contracts. (Evans 4) Unfortunately, many circuses do not provide veterinary care for the animals they own. Circus animals spend too much time in transport on trucks and railcars that are not air conditioned or heated. The animals are trapped in small cages for long hours, and some are even chained to the ground. In addition, traveling circus animals are often deprived of food and water for long periods, and moreover the animals receive beatings from the trainers.(Evans 7) Secondly, in many zoos, some entrepreneurs dont know how to take care of animals. The entrepreneurs also do not provide proper veterinary and house care, this isnt fair because when animals do not receive house care, many of them do not have any shelter to stay under, and when this happens, many of the animals get sick because of the climate. Thirdly, in animal theme parks like Marineland, many of the animals are neglected. For example, Shamu, an orca, didnt survive for one day because she repeatedly smashed herself against the wall of her tank until she died. Another example is that when people want to experience wildlife up-close n Discovery Cove, the trainers and people who work there, always cut up the stingers from stingrays. Many of these theme parks are deadly destinations because hundreds of animals have died in these facilities because of all the improper care, and oppression. (Evans 12)

Mass-production and over-consumption encourage ignorance and indifference in the name of fashion. Wild animals are trapped, clubbed, strangled, and stomped by the millions every year to serve the relatively few people who wish to wear fur coats. Most animals are killed by catching them in a trap. For example, there are steel-jaw leg hold traps, and for every target animal caught in a trap, two to ten times as many non-target animals are killed in the same trap. When this happens, some animals try to free themselves by chewing off their trapped leg, only to die later from shock and blood loss, or as the crippled victim of a hungry predator. (Swart 1) When these creatures are trapped in the small cages, they suffer. Many are unfortunately diagnosed with contagious diseases. The diseases included are pneumonia, urinary and bladder tract infections, and viral enteritis. In addition, because of all the waste and urine, fleas, ticks, lice, and other insects are attracted to the bottom of the cages. When the animals are trapped inside the cages, many unfortunately self-mutilate themselves, this is called wring-off, and it portrays the pain and panic experienced by the animals. To make one fur coat, it takes about 30 to 60 beautiful animals. Animals included to make fur clothing are red and gray foxes, otters, raccoons, badges, nutria, bobcats, lynxes, beavers, opossums, coyotes, muskrats, and wolves. (Swart 1)

Annually, millions of animals suffer and die in painful tests in order to determine the safety of cosmetics. Substances like eye shadow and soap are tested on rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, dogs, and many other animals, despite the fact that the test results do not help prevent or treat human illness or injury. People know that toothpastes, colognes, after-shaves, deodorants, perfumes, powders, blushes detergents, oven and window cleaners, furniture and floor polishes, and other household products are used, but do they know that many animals are routinely tested in many painful ways? (Miller 1)A commonly used procedure is the Draize Test, which is used to test household products for harmful chemicals. In the Draize Eye Irritancy Test, solutions re applied immediately to the subjects eyes- usually a group of albino rabbits. This often causes intense pain and destroys the rabbits eyes, leaving them raw and bleeding, and after the test, the rabbits are killed so they can be examined for internal damage. (Miller 2) Cosmetics are not required to be experimented on animals, and since non-animal alternatives exist, it’s difficult to understand why some companies still choose to conduct these brutal and unnecessary tests. Animals are also used for educational reasons. For example, scientists do labs in which they do a vivisection, the act of cutting a creature while its still alive. They do these types of experiments only to gain knowledge of how the bodily systems work, and also to examine how they react to various stresses and viruses. (Miller 2) The government wastes a lot of money on the experimentations that occur. $18 billion is spent annually by vivisection industries in the U.S., some of it funds research programs that actually accomplish something useful, but often enough, this tax money is completely wasted on duplicated and pointless experiments. Instead of using all that money on pointless experiments, why wont they at least use the extra money toward making lives of the lab animals a little better providing them with larger cages? (Harnack 5) Experimentations lead to wasting a lot of tax money, and sometimes the lab experiments do not end up working well. Animal tests are primitive; and modern technology and human clinical tests are much more effective and reliable.

In brief, it isnt fair when animals are harmed, or killed violently because of the entertainment, fashion, and experimental industry. In our dealings with animals, whether direct or indirect, the ethic for the liberation of life requires that we render unto animals what they are due, as creatures with an independent integrity and value. But how can we make a difference? People should reduce or stop going to the circus, and we should fight and get humane treatment for animals, and last but not least, we should get quicker, easier, less expensive and reliable alternatives to animal research.

Open Question: Do you think ppl who have a military background have a higher rate of success in life than those who don’t?

It seems to me that whenever I look up a successful entrepreneur on the internet (i.e. wikipedia.org) they often have military experience……it’s not an empirical rule, just something I noticed

Do you think that ppl with a military background have a higher rate of success in life than those who don’t?
