taxation of commercial valuations is very legal and proper. that's what lawyers are for... to haggle back and forth with the gooberment people about whether the amount of tax is extortion or fair provision for the "needs" of that local "society" and all the gobblety gook they decided to buy last year on credit! LOL... i used to be all worried about how "complex" everything was... Steve Emerson helped me get my mind right on this government and tax money non-sense... it's so simple! 

 Are you British? 

 no. they complicate things. 😉 

 "taxation of commercial valuations is very legal and proper."
