Taxes - August 2006

Every one has a right to assembly, including the expression of faith and denomination. That's great.
But any and every recognized church can file for tax exemption on property or services. They also apply for district - alotted grants for everything from signage, landscaping and billboards. There is actually nothing wrong with that...not exactly.
The problem is, each district may have as many churches as it has ATM machines. How does it add up? How much revenue are all of these churches disallowing the city when that tax money could also be used for schools, roads, public services and development? And should the number of churches per district be limited for that reason?
- Please, serious and intelligent answers only. -

We are thinking of switching from a C-corp to an S-corp. One of our shareholders is an LLC company and one is a family trust. I think we can switch with the family trust, but I can't find out if we qualify as an S-corp given the LLC investor.

I've watched several Property Ladder progs on UK TV (and a few others) and they watch someone buy a house, refurbish it, sell it, then say what their profit is. Not once have they mentioned capital gains tax as it wasn't their home... Has something changed? Can you now buy, refurb andsell a house you dont live in and avoid CGT? Sensible answers only plse as I really want to know..
