Posted on September 11, 2010 by Caleb Newquist

“Whatever good things international accountancy firms are doing in Russia – and I’m sure there are a few – blowing the whistle on massive corruption isn’t really one of them.”

~ Tim Wall, in the Moscow News. [via Re:The Auditors]

New Jersey Should Send a ‘Thank You’ Note to California and New York

  • Caleb Newquist
  • November 9, 2010

“In the recently-released 2011 State Business Tax Climate Index, New Jersey finally moved out of its last-place ranking on that list, in part due to Christie’s veto of the millionaires’ tax he mentioned during his interview. While it still ranks a pretty dismal 48 out of 50, it proves that improvement is possible, even in a state with a tax policy legacy as historically abysmal as New Jersey’s.” [Tax Foundation]
