Amazing that they could've followed the example 3 years before it existed.
Exactly when did the tax cheats in the cabinet do their cheating?

When did the "no strings attached TARP Bill" get passed? These companies got their dough from your boys, not mine. You sure need a history lesson.

Are you an American citizen only when it is convenient for you? Not me.

President Obama is my president every bit as much as he is yours or any other citizen of the USA. Assuming you are a citizen.

Fanatics see a world of us vs them. The rest of us recognize the beauty of a rainbow.

Until a few months ago, they were just civilian tax cheats, not cabinet level tax cheats.
Any number of civilian tax cheats could've been the model for business I suppose.

Until a few months ago the businesses were regular ol' business tax cheats, until they got taxpayer dollars. Like cabinet members.

Sorry, sentence two is too big a leap for me.

I'm going to assume we agree that the business tax cheats cheated all by themselves without any governmental example, and that cheating on taxes is bad.
I wonder if it's worse or better to cheat on taxes that were passed on to the consumer in the first place.

I'm going to assume we agree that individual tax cheats cheated all by themselves without government example, and that cheating on taxes is bad.

Etc.
