a limited liability company offers its owners protection from any personal liability from the business debts. What makes it better is that it is a pass-through entity with regards to tax, something a corporation is not. Being a pass through entity means it can pass through to its owners the companys profits as well as losses. They will then reflect these on their personal tax returns just like how it is done in a partnership or a sole proprietorship. Just like with partnerships, LLCs provide greater flexibility for the companys management.

The mere fact many of the businesses "TEAM CORRUPT" continually forks over "TAX`PAYER" funds to are L.L.C.'s, with full knowledge that those types of businesses are past-through entities and it's members are protected from any personal liability from the business debts are more than enough reasons that "SAFE-GUARDS" are instilled in each and every dealing/contract the City engages in with those types of businesses and or individuals/members.

In many cases a phone call to the I.R.S. would supply the City with not only a History of the L.L.C.'s financial history but the financial history of it's members as well [even in the cases of the start up L.L.C.s {which seem to pop up in this City every time there's "TAX PAYER MONIES" to be had via handouts of Tax Payer Monies via the Federal and or State Government}].

Doris and Company along with the membership of those L.L.C.'s that have gone belly-up [in many cases shortly after receiving "TAX PAYER MONIES/ASSETS"] reeks of not only "TAX EVASION" but a ponsy scheme used to fleece "TAX PAYERS".

Those "FEW" still walking around with their heads in the clouds when it comes to the scams being perpetrated by doris and "TEAM CORRUPT" on the Tax Payers and Residents of Scranton really need to wake the hell up.

That excuse of not knowing what was going on has run it's course, the time has come for many if not "ALL" of those concerned /involved to be incarcerated!
