Good point Ted. I can just imagine these politicians drafting language on taxation knowing that they have a loophole here or there so at the end of the day it isn't anymore money out of their pockets.

Isn't there enough ridiculous politics in our own sport without having to get into this crap?

so would you be better off if he just sat on his money,,,,a lot of people benefit when he throws down some large coin:drink:

Kerry is just another rich phucker who can afford accountants that can help him find, and take advantage of 'legal' tax dodges.

Seems like a non-story and bit of a reach, considering all the shenanigans that are pulled every day in this country by the weathy (see: Sachs, Goldman).

We wouldn't even be hearing about it if he wasn't a politician.

just sayin'...

he is a politician of m******* and doesn't live in RI AND THATS WHY HE SHOULD PAY TAXES HERE he owns 2 houses here to, well if he can do it I just might too. I need to get a reg for my saber it should be done next month. mass sucks cause your trailer needs a new reg every yr. theres guys that go to maine its good for 5 yrs and RI REG FOR BOATS IS 2YRS TOO.

Yes. Hell, yes.

But, it's raining at my house, and...

I nominate this as stupidest thread ever(Besides anything started by Sunkin). I , and many of us on this board, pay an accountant to find every available legal deduction possible.
If you don't like the guy that's fine but this is a non story.

The story is why there's still enough people in Mass to keep re-electing this douche, and the other Mass Congressmen that don't truly represent the people....

Anyone who is going to change their political option due to any comments made by someone else on any OSO chatboard, please raise your hand.

I don't like John Kerry.......but I hate a F#ckin boat tax worse!
