You know for a political party that wants to suck up more and more of our income in taxes every year, they sure do seem to have a problem paying their own personal tax bills. Other People's Money, I guess.
Mr. IRS Tax collector man... meet Tom Daschle.

I would have more respect for these guys if they just came out and said "The tax code is confusing" or "When you leave public office, you have to give up a lot of perks and start paying taxes on them, and it hurts" or "I felt that I had paid enough already." I'm convinced that people like Nancy Pelosi who want to raise our taxes don't really grasp what it means to pay taxes, especially when they have so many things that the taxpayer picks up for them. Car and driver? Taxpayer expense. Flights back home? Taxpayer expense. Health care? Taxpayer expense. Home in Washington? Taxpayer subsidized. I mean health care, travel, and a home are the biggest expenses Joe Sixpack has to pay for on a monthly basis and if you're a Congressperson, you're not paying for any of it. Is it any wonder why they don't think higher taxes mean anything or affect people's standard of living? I don't think they actually spend enough money to realize what it means to pay taxes.
