Indian police arrest alleged kingpin of U.S. tax scam

My thoughts exactly, about you.
Now you bring up large international cases involving FBI and multinationals in the gambling and construction industries in a discussion about FBI or IRS seizing legitimate small business owners's accounts, bank accounts frozen without and sometimes against court decisions (which is very much in contradiction with what you wrote earlier, but nobody here is really hoping you to make sense).
Not only banks like HSBC want to know on which size of the bed one sleep at night (and possibly request a certified proof of it, or registered lease to that part of the bed) before one can recover their assets there but also what one intend to do with their money before handing it to them ( while IB is fine TDameritrade has been giving a hard time to its overseas customers to withdraw money - to a same name account at that. Citing the patriot act. Google is your friend if it's another one of those events which hasn't pierced you restrictive glasses)
Anyway, I got your point, it's impressive, as usual.
 
if anything we are both guilty of having derailed the thread, here the reminder "
Indian police arrest alleged kingpin of U.S. tax scam"

The thread moved towards freezing assets and the main, I would argue almost entire reason, for regulators to have enacted anti-money laundering laws and KYC rules and for authorities to temporarily hold assets is to prevent money laundering and illicit fund transfers, whether small businesses or large corporations, whether small transfers or large transfers by individuals. Please do not pretend as if you have the authority on the thread topic, if anything we both are guilty as charged of derailing the original thread topic.

On all other issues you mentioned I claim hogwash and exceptional cases, you pretend as if illegitimate withholding of legit funds is going practice, in reality those are exceptional cases and the big picture, which does not seem to fit into your little brain, is that those laws have their intended effect which is to deter money laundering and limit the transfer of illicit funds. Dude, you really seem to have a hard on for me, I am straight and married. If you would calm down and think for a second you would admit that anti-money-laundering laws and all associated regulations have prevented tens if not hundreds of thousands of illicit fund transfers while a tiny fraction of legitimate transfers were temporarily held up and made good on. You blow a mosquito up to an elephant. Typical French attitude to handling issues. I hope you enjoy your new 32 hour work week back home, roughly 6 hours of work a day , come in the office 9am and leave 3pm, no surprise you guys get done shite back home.

Funny you bring up the working hours, it is totally off topic but shows once again how unaware you are of realities.
Germans, your homeland coworkers , actually enjoy even less working hours than the french :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_time#OECD_ranking

Besides obviously those hours only concern the lowly employed. Back in Paris, for the average entrepreneur, at 11am local time, crooked banks in Asia already close so the rest of the day can be spent enjoying local wine and international hookers. Surprised you hadn't figured it out already
 
Lol, again pulling out a totally distorted statistic to support your incorrect point. Hardly anyone in Europe works as little as the French. Germans work roughly 35 hours per week with 24 paid holidays per year (that is about 8 hours per day with 1 hour unpaid lunch break). That is a far cry from the many weeks French take off while only working 32 hours per week. I can pull up two dozens or more statistics that directly contradict your OECD ranking. And of course you need to tilt your statistic by mentioning "lowly employed". We are talking national averages to compare apples with apples. I do not peruse hookers hence I would not know, that is your specialization though, not surprised you bring up hookers once AGAIN. Lowlife.

P.S. And funny you bring up entrepreneurs. Which entrepreneurs? The few French entrepreneurs have all flocked to London because France is a shit place to start up any sort of business. Now the government is funding a massive incubation hub hoping to lure talent back to France (http://www.rudebaguette.com/2013/09...o-the-biggest-digital-incubator-in-the-world/). The only problem with this stupid plan is that it does not remove all the obstacles French entrepreneurs are facing: Horrible labor laws, hardly any talent to hire (its not precisely that French are famous for being good developers/programmers or are at the forefront of technology unlike Germany which proves its talents in annual hacking and coding competitions). What a joke. France will lose out once AGAIN in the Brexit aftermath. Germany, Luxembourg, and Dublin will split among them the talent moving away from London. Good luck France, you can continue to groom your grand ecole fake-elite.

Lol dear, happy you don't live underwater, there are not many fishes that bite as easily as you.
And those stats are talking about national averages, I'm curious what other stats you can pull up. From my side of the internet, when I look up "working hours by country" or similar keywords, well, Germany keeps on coming out below France.
 
Then you need to switch from your French browser to an international one ;-)

Yes, another time you are boasting of so many studies available but can't link a single one. We're getting used to your peculiarities.
So care to link those 2 dozen studies ?
 
So how can you even start to reconcile your numbers? 32 hours per week and how many weeks holidays for the French? Wasn't it 6 weeks? That is 52 weeks per year - 6 = 42 weeks times 32 hours per week. How can this be lower than the 35 hours per week, worked in Germany and 24 days of holidays in Germany. Germans get even less holidays than the British with 28 days per year on average.

That some of your statistics (one of which you picked) are totally distorted shows the following example. http://fortune.com/2015/11/11/chart-work-week-oecd/
Again OECD bullshit. Are you seriously telling anyone that Germans work 26 hours per week? Lol. Mate, I may not be German but I have lived and worked in Germany sufficiently long to know that is total bollocks.
