As a foreigner (English) & a business owner, I can categorically state, the 5-year tax break is a complete myth! I pay the same taxes as every US business owner should & more than most actually do. Because we're under constant scrutiny by the INS (or whatever they're calling themselves this week) we don't get to get away with a lot of the 'business expenses' a lot of Citizens do. I had to be very firm with our accountant, explaining that although we 'could' claim a lot more deductions than we do, we have to show the Embassy, every year, just how much tax we're paying & we have to be seen to be paying as much as possible to keep our visa.

I live up that way and yep, it's true. It's ridiculous and yet another reason I don't go there except to fish. He's right......your Gov. at work ! They can just put the business in their sons name after 5 years and it goes tax free for 5 more! Aint America great....B.S. I live 35 min. from there and no longer go myself!

It's that way everywhere. Even in Alaska.....Skagway, Ketchikan, Juneau...most of the tourist shops were owned by Muslims, Hindu's ,etc.

JTHuntsalot, I was going to post that, but I thought it to be crass, rude, politically incorrect and just downright offensive. I still laugh my arse off at it though. If there is ever a Christian/Muslim war in the US, it will be over the price of cigarettes because they'll be the only ones left selling them.

I ain't exactly correct on much of anything, political or not. It's much more fair to poke fun at everyone instead of leaving someone out.

This is old news. Gatlinburg moved in that direction twenty years ago! I haven't been there in years, just not the same experience anymore. If you want to see the area the way it was, go to Townsend and Wears Valley. There's a lot more to do and see then you think there is...;)
