I don’t think his house is off the tax rolls. If you give me the address I can tell you for certain.

Even the Catholic church doesn’t exempt its non-church property.

There was an article posted in the past few days that said that he rushed in to pay lapsed property taxes of over $7000 on his Chicago home that ehe had “forgotten” to pay. The article went on to say that at one time he had declared that his home was the “offices” of his Foundation. His foundation had 2 members (officers) — Rahm and his wife and 2 donors — Rahm and his wife. There had been no distributions from the Foundation — i.e. a personal savings account. As the address of the Foundation (according to the article) the house had been removed from the tax rolls. I’m sorry that I do not have a link, but I read it here.

I’m just not sure of the time frame. This man made $$millions$$ after he left the White House staff under Clinton as a board member of one of the big financial orgs — Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, etc. He certainly should be able to pay his property tax like the rest of us.

The rich get richer by not paying their taxes, it seems.
