This Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation video demonstrates that low-tax jurisdictions offer millions of people around the world a safe haven from tyrannical and oppressive government. For this, and many other reasons, there is a powerful moral case for preserving and promoting tax havens. This mini-documentary is the second installment of a three-part series on the beneficial impact of low-tax jurisdictions. In addition to showing how tax havens promote human rights and individual liberty, the video exposes the hypocritical anti-tax competition efforts of statist international bureaucracies such as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. For more information: www.freedomandprosperity.org Link to Part 1 -- The Economic Case for Tax Havens: www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi0lkJBTi58

    Unearned income? wtf is that? Are you saying that these people don't deserve that money? Are you saying that it should be forcefully taken from them, and given to someone else?

    What ruined our economy is lazy assholes that don't contribute and only leech. Call them what you want, but THAT is what ruined our economy.

    And dude.... Rich people pay a FAR higher PERCENTAGE in taxes than "workers" or as you'd like to call them, the prolitereate. I'm sure he'd LOVE to pay taxes like the workers.

    If you believe that income disparity CAUSES economic harm, then I invite you to find evidence. The countries with the highest income disparities are also the countries with the best standards of living... for every economic quintile. Would you overtax a group even if it hurt the people.

    The rich invest in capital. A portion of that capital return is paid to workers in higher wages. It causes increases in the standard of living.

    Your envy is poorly masked by your ignorance, troll.

    It would be a shame for you not to make much more cash when regular people do it easily by applying Caul Cash Code (go check it out on Google).

    The Global Big Money Power Elite, Neo-mercantilists and Corporatists rules Big Gov for their own economic purposes. Politicians are their bought sock puppets put in place to uphold a charade that everything is alright and played by the rules.

    In “Inheriting an Abundant Earth” a simple rule tweak on inheritance ends up changing the direction and purpose of modern human life! Here’s a fair way to give the 99% the key to the vaults! It's something specific we can demand. Are we really just this close to having it work right? Break one link, and the chains fall away! Oh yeah, it's a Ski movie! Watch “Inheriting an Abundant Earth” (“Occupying Chairlifts” 5.0) then sign the petition, and share it!!

    What you fail to understand is that libertarians see the race to the bottom as a GOOD thing. They think that the working class in the west should be treated like modern-day slaves and consigned to sweatshops just like the working class of China.

    LOOOOOL..First, all the autocratic leaders which were shown are the main customers of the tax havens. In turn that money are used for cementing their regimes...Second, Switzerland was not protecting only Jews' property (they got really rich on that by the way) but they protected also Nazi's property. Which was the main reason why Hitler didnt attack Switzerland...

    No they are not. Cite your evidence for us all.

    The countries with the greatest economic disparity are countries none of us would want to live in

    You are correct about the rich investing in capital. Unfortunately they invest in capital in communist ant third world countries. Why, be cause slave labor is cheap. There in an increase in the standard of living of other countries

    totally rocking it, what a intellectual depraved argument for tax havens that middle class and working class people can't have. Thats why income tax rates on the rich is meaningless without laws requiring them to report their offshore bank accounts.

    No wonder tax havens help the rich along with criminals avoid or evade taxes. No wonder the middle class and working class bear the tax burden in this country.
