Wes, Wes, didn't I teach you anything?
His best movie was 'Major League'.
but, but, but..I thought the IRS commissioner said paying taxes was VOLUNTARY..
I thought 'Whistler' was responsible for his personal finances...
FOX News had a caption on the screen that stated "Snipes tried to steal $12 million from the IRS." It sounds like it was the other way around.
How much do you want to bet that he'll play the race card and get away with it & or move out of the country where he can live with no more pesky tax problems...

This "star"....will get a sweetheart "deal".
Not one day behind bars....
Plus - Snipes will still have beat the country our of millions.
Only in America..

I guess they don't withhold from those studio movie checks.
He makes a lot of money and you would think he would have paid what was due.
I like his acting and I find him entertaining.
He's a talented guy IMO.
Look for the DemonRATS to claim Snipes is a Republican!
He is not guilty. He is black. He is a democrat. Thus, not guilty. Move to next talking point re Foley.
Anyway, if he's got the money and just making a point not filing his income taxes, I sort of admire his guts.
Democrat insider indicted for tax fraud
Another one of the 98% Liberal DemonRat entertainment industry gets in big trouble. I am shocked!
Eddie Kahn of “American Rights Litigators” represents the Hee-Haw contingent of the tax protestor movement. “Without any doubt, the most stupid of all the ‘professional’ tax protesters. Mr. Kahn's ‘arguments’ are so utterly juvenile and worthless as to barely worth the space I am using to type this sentence.” ~ Taxes.com
Eddie caters to the dumbest of the dumb, and his theories for not paying taxes are thus the dumbest of the dumb. Eddie has claimed variously that he can’t find the Form 1040, that the IRS was not created by Congress and apparently just materialized out of the blue, that the IRS doesn’t have the power to collect taxes, that the United States doesn’t actually include the states, but is actually limited to the District of Columbia, that all the money collected from taxes goes to the International Monetary Fund (Eddie doesn’t say who pays for our aircraft carriers, but what the hey), and that so long as keep out of the Social Security Program that you’ll never have to file taxes. All of these theories have lost in court, see Tax Protestor Dummies. It seems that if somebody has tried a theory, lost, and then gone to jail that Eddie will then take it and advocate it as gospel.
But don’t take Eddie’s hick approach to mean that he’s not an innovator. Eddie has come up with the concept of the “Nonenforcement Pocket Commissions” (whatever the heck those are) to justify saying “No!” when the IRS comes a’collecting.
Treasury agents raid office in Mount Dora
A lawsuit said a ministry sells tax programs showing how to hide income.

MOUNT DORA -- Federal agents with the U.S. Treasury Department have searched a second-story office suite at 440 S. Donnelly St., carrying out boxes filled with documents and computer equipment, Mount Dora police said Monday.
Shop owners in the area said the office is run by Guiding Light of God Ministries, headed by Eddie Kahn and his wife, Kathleen, of Sorrento.

The indictment said that American Rights Litigators claimed to be an organisation which used aggressive accountants to protect Americans’ rights. Its successor “held itself out as a Christian ministry . . . established to assist men and women in their pursuit of truth and freedom as Americans”.
The indictment added: “In reality, ARL and GLGM were for-profit, commercial enterprises that promoted and sold fraudulent tax schemes.”
Prosecutors said that the tax advisors claimed refunds on the basis of the discredited “861 argument”, asserting that US citizens could be taxed only on income from activities overseas. The indictment said that American Rights Litigators would get 20 per cent of tax refunds obtained by its clients.
Mr Perez said: “Those who intentionally and unlawfully harass the IRS (Internal Revenue Service) through deceit, trickery and fraud undermine the collection of revenue that is vital to every aspect of our Government.”
