Everything is taxable in California. The California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) takes a very agressive position on when a LLC needs to be registered in California. Their view is if a member of the LLC makes one decision for the LLC, writes or signs one check for the LLC, makes one phone call regarding the LLC and anything else you can think of while that members is in California then that LLC has to be registered in California and file LLC tax returns with California. That is a totally ridiculous position. Next, they will try to tax business owners as they fly over the state!
This is all part of the "Nexus" fight where States tax out of state businesses.

Why I Support Ron Paul for President
Why I Support Ron Paul for President
Taxes
First, Ron Paul is the only limited government, lower taxes candidate. He has never voted to increase taxes and desires to cut government spending and taxes needed to support the spending. You cannot increase government (whether it is "infrastructure" as used by the Big Spenders, or transfer payments and subsidies,) and expect to lower taxes.
Free Trade
Ron Paul supports real free trade not more governmental organizations such as NAFTA, GATT, CAFTA, etc. Free trade is simple... we won't tax imports and other countries do not tax our exports.
War and Foriegn Policy
The war in Iraq was sold to us with false information. The area is more dangerous now than when we entered it. We destroyed a regime hated by our direct enemies, the jihadists, and created thousands of new recruits for them. We have no business making "regime changes" and trying to knock down or prop up other governments. We are not and can never be the policemen of the world.
Personal Liberty
The biggest threat to personal liberty is the government. We must limit the ability of the government to collect and store data about citizens' personal matters. Every government agency restricts individual choice. We need to cut back on government and increase personal freedom. The Constitution has a very limited role for the Federal government. Washington has no business being involved with education, abortion, religion, race relations, housing, etc. These are the rights left to the individuals and the states.
Yes, Ron Paul CAN WIN
The so-called "practical" political commentators say that Ron Paul can't win so we should unite behind a "winner" even if we do not support their views. This is the old "unite for unity" trap and is akin to Machiavelli's "the end justifies the means" argument. Let's vote for the best person...Ron Paul for President in 2008!

Family Businesses Unprepared for Succession
Family Businesses Unprepared for Succession
A new survey showed Family Business need to prepare for continuation by the next generation. Among the survey's other key findings:
25 percent of the businesses think the next generation is not competent to move into leadership roles.
92.6 percent say the family business is their primary source of income.
60 percent of majority shareholders in family businesses are age 55or older.
Without planning, many of these businesses will fail or greatly diminish in value leaving the owners far less than they deserve. The full article is at the Orlando Business Journal
