McCains: Why cut taxes when you can just evade them?
San Diego Country isn’t happy with the McCain family. Turns out, one of the many trusts that administers one of their seven homes hasn’t paid taxes in four years. McCain’s trust scrambled to pay nearly all of the outstanding debt to the county. $1,742 of a total $6,744.42 remains.
If that seems like an inconsequential number, recall that his gas tax holiday would have saved Americans $28 this spring. The better choice would have been to not pay taxes and reinvest the money in a disaster relief company. The McCain’s will be levied 1.5% interest per month on unpaid taxes.
You can see where they live one-seventh of the time below.
Also, why is it that Sen. Clinton is held responsible for everything her husband does and Sen. McCain seems constantly unaware of the behaviour of his wife’s myriad trusts that manage her hundreds of millions? And why is the multimillionaire John McCain continuing to claim he understands the working poor without widespread criticism from the high courtiers in the corporate media?
The callous single-standard of the oligarchs is sickening.
In being unable to pay their taxes and under threat of seizure from the county they share more in common with Americans than we give them credit for.
