"Toks Desalu" wrote in message news:ms91c.30081$PR3.525059@attbi_s03... You have no idea what you are talking about. The Corporation I work for serves about 100 clients. In many different industries. Number of employees at each range from 3 to around 100. Of our 100 clients only 4 are Sole Props, 10 are LLC (what we here in Arkansas call partnerships and also a type of corporations) and the rest are Corporations. You are under the mistaken assumption that only really big businesses are corporations. This just proves your ignorance on the topic of the economy. In this situation you may be right. But, I am trying to illustrate that "combined number of proprietorships and partnerships in the United States is more than five times the number of corporations." Because of this statement, I only assume that my previous comment might be more accurute. Since you explain that only four of them belong to partnerships, then I am mistaken. However, the question is still left unanswered: Everything you see, touch, use, eat, wear or live in was probably produced by a corporation and could be produced in no other way. How can we prove that corportations produce more products than the combined sole proprietorship and partnership? What you need to do is get over this assumption that incorporated entities are in some way evil and that products produced by and the people that own non-incorporated entities are in some way golden and pure. There are nice people and there are assholes. It doesn't matter if they have INC after their business name. And that is all a corporation is a person or group that has filed with the state to act in some way. You do know that many if not most charitable organizations are CORPORATIONS don't you. GigG |

And welcome to the ranks of aviation! Joe Morris |

you can't set QFE when the field elevation is that high above sea level Perhaps not on a regular (civilian) aircraft altimeter, but given the number of toys that are part of a typical military bird it would seem that something as simple as a parachute jumper's alitmeter (which *is* designed to be set to QFE) would be a good, inexpensive way to do a sanity check on altitudes used in low-level aerobatics.

Everything you see, touch, use, eat, wear or live in was probably produced by a corporation and could be produced in no other way. Actually major stuff came from sole proprietorship or partnership business. You see, corporations sell the finishing products. Parts within products is bought from sole proprietorship or partnerships business. So, Technically, everything you see, touch, use, eat, wear or live in most likely produced by private business. Only corporations have the power to manipulate financial system. Absolute nonsense. Corporations come in all sizes. Some have only a single shareholder and no employees. Almost all producers of raw materials, including mining and petroleum companies, farms, fishing boats, etc., are corporations. |

Even though you probably made up this statistic out of thin air it means absolutely nothing. |
