Exelon Subsidiary Denied Tax Breaks On Three Mile Island Purchase

Exelon Subsidiary Denied Tax Breaks On Three Mile Island Purchase

I found it interesting that AmerGen when it spent its $93 million got essentially a bag of money nearly ten times as large along with the nuclear power plants.  There is that nasty decommissioning exposure, but that’s in the far, far future.

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
