    Hey, if members of our own government, like Timothy Geithner and Charlie Rangel, can get away with not paying taxes why should the rest of us bother paying them?

    How many millions has Rangel failed to report at this point? And what takes the cake is how he's "investigating" himself. Remember the crap with Chris Dodd the VIP loans and the other favors? What the hell ever happened with all that? Nothing, that's what.

    At least a lien has been placed on this guy so he's bound to get screwed one way or another. But politicians get away with this constantly and the worst they get is a slap on the wrist.

    If you consider USA's per capita income as ~$46,800, Jimmy owes the IRS the equivalent of the annual income of twenty Americans.

    Hell, what's a million in unpaid taxes with a federal deficit of over $3 trillion?

    $3 trillion is so 1991.

    @maximum-sienna: I thought it was a projected 10 trillion in a couple years. Or maybe it was 3 trillion this year. Shit, I don't know. It's ridiculous, whatever it is. Hope and change indeed.

    @Tiberiuswise: Ding Ding Ding! We have a winnner!

    When I worked in a race shop owned by a wealthy guy I learned that accountants were similar to racecar mechanics- They were experts at reading the rules and creatively interpreting them to maximize performance. No matter how any administration tries to write rules to tax the rich, the rich will always have armies of accountants tearing the rules apart and finding new loopholes.

    Of course, he's employed by Obama. (I know, that was a cheap shot, but someone had to take it.)

    I don't care who you are, underpaying your taxes is completely unacceptable. Particularly when you are well compensated and can afford a good accountant. The rash of people with tax issues being given government posts -- especially Geithner and Rangel since they oversee the tax code.

    All of these people should have lose their jobs (if appointed) or lose their committee memberships (if elected).
