F’ing brilliant! I’m in!
Does anyone find it troubling that a tax cheat and a liar is working on the next bank bailout as we speak?
Nam Vet
I have a red marker. I will note it.
I’m in!!
Uh. Hmm. See, one tiny problem.
I don’t blame them for not paying their taxes. I blame our government for continuing to rape the populace of their livelihoods under threat of jail and liens.
So... yeah.
Yeah, and I'm outraged that his boss and most of the politicians gave him a pass.
Make your own, it’s not hard. Just print out “Tax Cheat!” on your laser printer (small enough that it will fit just over Geithner’s name) and take it to a local rubber stamp maker.
One TINY problem?
This guy gets away with it and is now the SEC TREAS.
Not a tiny problem.
But, for the little guy who is honest, law abiding, tax paying:
We are getting screwed!
It’s the hypocrisy. This guy is an ELECTED official and he’s ripping off the very people he serves. Are the tax codes BS. . . little doubt. However, just because I disagree with taxes doesn’t mean I or Geithner or the rest of Obama’s cabinet can not pay them. You know just as well as I do that if we owed the IRS even half of what these jokers owe, we’d be in jail and everything we owned would be confiscated, let alone hold office.
No law against owning the stamp!
They’d have to find you with a bunch of stamped currency.
I say “charge me!”
They can’t stand the publicity of the trial.
I wonder if I make my next tax payment out to “Tax Cheat”, if that will get their attention?
Count me in...
I wasn’t saying their crimes were tiny problems. Worded better, “I have a tiny problem”; not to be confused with the easily twistable response (spare me).
Regardless, I agree with both of you. Point remains.
Nodding. Thanks.
One question: How soon does this Monopoly money bearing his siggy hit the street? Probably soon since the machines are going 24/7 at warp speed nowadays.
Other than that, I’m in. This is no more “dangerous” than the bills going around with “Where’s George” stamped on them w/ a web addy.
You could just write it on the bill. No stamp is necessary. But if you are going to invest a lot of time into this inspired act of civil disobedience, a stamp might be a good investment.
I am too cheap and will probably just use a pen.
