Why are contractual arrangements regarding land supposed to be more
difficult to obscure than any others?
Because you cant hide land itself like you can with say a PC?
His point is that you can hide the *value* of land. Instead of selling you
a piece of land for $500,000, I can officially sell it to you for $100,000
and secretly give you $400,000. So the land tax will be based on the
$100,000 number.
