That wouldnt work and I bet you KNOW THAT deep inside... ...deep, deep down inside, you know it...
...but you will NEVER admit it I am sure...
The Soviet Union "didn't work"
There is only one thing that does work - peace and property rights.
Deep down, I suspect you know this.

Do you consider a rich person investing in a cure for cancer not acting for the good of the entire CONTINENT!!!?
I know it is hard to fathom, but often "rich" people are rich because they know which types of businesses to invest in.
Most businesses bring joy and happiness to society.
For example, the man who runs Yankee Candle brought me holiday joy because he invested in a candle making corporation.
In fact, the only types of "corporations" that bring misery and suffering are those most heavily subsidized by the State with tax dollars.

what's the problem with that?

This post appears to be much more about your personal hang ups than about an actor who consistently failed to file his tax returns.
Yeah, I have a "hang ups" with illegal wars and violent theft.
It's a small issue that I'm currently work on with my therapist.
Every time I get to the breakthrough point, I keep regressing back to the infantile position of wanting to keep my own stuff.
My therapist recommended that I undergo police tasering as a form a electro-shock therapy.
