So true. Sounds like this whole BP fiasco is going to end up with oil on the face of these beancounters. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38424553/ns/disaster_in_the_gulf <lol> | |

| No doubt. Just remember Enron and what it did to public accounting. | |

He's right. Another good reason to incorporate; they get all the good tax breaks. Just imagine how many EIC audits the IRS is going to have to do to make up for all that lost revenue! *slaps knee* Tax Writer | |

| I think Gazoo was having fun with this idea that accountants are not moral.
The accoutants can't change the tax law, and I thought the article was really sort of dumb. However, I completely agree with Gazoo's attempt to irritate the accountants. | |

| Crowe, if I was guessing, I would guess that BP accountants are actually tax attorneys. | |
