We're saying the exact same thing. "Income passes through the members" = members pay income taxes = federal + states + self employment tax = +%50 if your income is $1 million. You can eventually avoid the self employment tax filing as an S-corp.
"that's not going to happen if you want to rely on the systems those taxes pay for in the US.". That's what I'm saying, there's no way around it besides the republicans tax reform.
"spread income over multiple years". That's what someone mentioned already.
Am I still not informed? Should I need better tax advise?
