3 AnswersPhilosophy9 years agoHow some countries have so few tax payments for companies?
How can countries like Sweden, Georgia, Norway to collect only 4 tax payments?
http://www.pwc.com/gx/en/paying-taxes/data-tables....
Companies are not all alike. They have different:
- Buildings and lands
- Means of transport
- Expenses and income sources
- Fields of activity
- Imports or exports from different countries
- Ways of using the profit
- Social contributions due to different people, etc..
Are countries with the fewest tax payments in fact just countries that can afford to not give too much attention to their income taxes? http://www.scancomark.se/Companies/How-some-1.206-...

I would like to find interviews with police about accidents (no matter what kind of accidents, I just want to see how they report) and I don't find them.
In Romania this is almost obligatory, as if they were single credible source.

"Incredibly strong kids wow the Web, Brothers Giuliano and Claudi Stroe, ages 5 and 7, may put your workout to shame.
They live in Galati, Romania, about three hours from Bucharest, and what one can only assume are the country's finest gyms. No matter, as the Stroe brothers know how to get work done. They'll put your morning routine to shame. They don't come more adorable than this duo, and this duo thinks your total number of chin-up repetitions is cute, at best. Prepare to be shamed by little boys.
While you started your workout program two months ago, these guys started at two years old, and follow their father, Lulian's, weight routine for two hours each morning. The two are incredibly strong, with Giuliano holding the world record for 90-degree vertical push-ups and the human flag."

Whether it's normal or healthy for their father to be putting them through the routines is another debate entirely, especially when he apparently admits he hopes his sons become stars.

1 AnswerDiet & Fitness9 years agoIt's any patient shrink around here, to read a poem and tell me few personality traits?
What personality traits (at least one) has someone who create and like this poem:
Near a low foothill
At Heaven’s doorsill,
Where the trail’s descending
To the plain and ending,
Here three shepherds keep
Their three flocks of sheep,
One, Moldavian,
One, Transylvanian
And one, Vrancean.
Now, the Vrancean
And the Transylvanian
In their thoughts, conniving,
Have laid plans, contriving
At the close of day
To ambush and slay
The Moldavian;
He, the wealthier one,
Had more flocks to keep,
Handsome, long-horned sheep,
Horses, trained and sound,
And the fiercest hounds.
One small ewe-lamb, though,
Dappled gray as tow,
While three full days passed
Bleated loud and fast;
Would not touch the grass.
”Ewe-lamb, dapple-gray,
Muzzled black and gray,
While three full days passed
You bleat loud and fast;
Don’t you like this grass?
Are you too sick to eat,
Little lamb so sweet?”
”Oh my master dear,
Drive the flock out near
That field, dark to view,
Where the grass grows new,
Where there’s shade for you.
”Master, master dear,
Call a large hound near,
A fierce one and fearless,
Strong, loyal and peerless.
The Transylvanian
And the Vrancean
When the daylight’s through
Mean to murder you.”
”Lamb, my little ewe,
If this omen’s true,
If I’m doomed to death
On this tract of heath,
Tell the Vrancean
And Transylvanian
To let my bones lie
Somewhere here close by,
By the sheepfold here
So my flocks are near,
Back of my hut’s grounds
So I’ll hear my hounds.
Tell them what I say:
There, beside me lay
One small pipe of beech
With its soft, sweet speech,
One small pipe of bone
With its loving tone,
One of elderwood,
Fiery-tongued and good.
Then the winds that blow
Would play on them so
All my listening sheep
Would draw near and weep
Tears, no blood so deep.
How I met my death,
Tell them not a breath;
Say I could not tarry,
I have gone to marry
A princess – my bride
Is the whole world’s pride.
At my wedding, tell
How a bright star fell,
Sun and moon came down
To hold my bridal crown,
Firs and maple trees
Were my guests; my priests
Were the mountains high;
Fiddlers, birds that fly,
All birds of the sky;
Torchlights, stars on high.
But if you see there,
Should you meet somewhere,
My old mother, little,
With her white wool girdle,
Eyes with their tears flowing,
Over the plains going,
Asking one and all,
Saying to them all,
’Who has ever known,
Who has seen my own
Shepherd fine to see,
Slim as a willow tree,
With his dear face, bright
As the milk-foam, white,
His small moustache, right
As the young wheat’s ear,
With his hair so dear,
Like plumes of the crow
Little eyes that glow
Like the ripe black sloe?’
Ewe-lamb, small and pretty,
For her sake have pity,
Let it just be said
I have gone to wed
A princess most noble
There on Heaven’s doorsill.
To that mother, old,
Let it not be told
That a star fell, bright,
For my bridal night;
Firs and maple trees
Were my guests, priests
Were the mountains high;
Fiddlers, birds that fly,
All birds of the sky;
Torchlights, stars on high.
3 AnswersPsychology9 years agoExample of major historical events of a nation that seems historic recurrence?
I put here, from my country, three examples, because they are major, although in fact, generally, all kings, voivodes and our leaders were either expelled or murdered, or sold, or forced to leave.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burebista#Death
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_the_Brave#Las...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceausescu#Death
I do not know too well history, but another example that comes into my mind is the beginning of two world wars seem historic recurrence for Germans.
Probably you already know someone, who knows that, although her odd behavior is due to events arising in childhood, it fails to correct it. Equally predictable can be the behavior of a nation too?
Please, remember that the main question is referring about examples of major historical events; I can't find over the web, maybe you can put some links...
The ideal would be a list of nations.
1 AnswerHistory9 years agoEquivalent and the possible origin of a slang expression?
Do you know, in any language, the equivalent of Romanian expression:
"o pula de neam prost" concerning "a (too) big dick".
o = indefinite article
pula = dick (penis)
de neam prost = of bad generation (of stupid people)
How do you think that it was developed such a bias: who has it (too) big is dumb.
