Why isn't Al Sharpton in jail for tax evasion?

Why aren't the Koch brothers in jail for tax evasion

[unsmiley 111]

How many of the above are in violation of the law ?

And even if they were in violation of the law (and they are not), two wrongs don't make a right.

oh so it's about revenge and punishment, not about each paying his own fair share. i'd suggest changing the laws, closing those loopholes, but no - where's my pitchfork?only reason any of you are pissed about sharpton is because you're being told to feel that way. keep your attention where it's supposed to be.

If you are so worried about people paying their fair share, as I have told you before, you should also be outraged by the 50% of the US population who pay absolutely NOTHING in Federal income taxes. They are paying NO SHARE.

I know this is obvious to most of us, but for the folks that don't quite get it, maybe it needs to be pointed out?

If we make the people on low incomes pay their fair share in taxes, who's gonna pay for their increase in gov't handouts because they have less money?

If we make the people on low incomes pay their fair share in taxes, who's gonna pay for their increase in gov't subsidies because they have less money?

there shouldn't be any gov't subsidies unless they're going to benefit the job creators. you know, so the wealth trickles ever so gently down on the rest of us.

except the wealth they don't pay taxes on to begin with, of course.

The rich are ever so kind to think of us, and let the trickle be gentle. A deluge would be most uncomfortable.

So there are 159,000,000 million people in the U.S. paying no taxes at all?
