Small people are tracked down and fined by the Mass DOR
for such actions.

But they are small people — and not the Senate Piggies
who are above all law, just like their Dear Leader.

Is anyone surprised by this? After Clinton was elected Michael Eisner sold of millions in Disney stock so he wouldn’t have to pay the higher taxes he knew were coming after Clinton’s inauguration. It’s the typical ‘do as I say, not as I do’ mentality of all Dems.

John Kerry will eventually die like everyone else. Then he will meet his Maker and will give an account of his life. If he had not trusted Christ as Saviour, he will spend eternity in the Lake of Fire.

While taxing us to death, before we die of Obamacare, the powers that be have excused themselves from all their new plans for us, the average US taxpayer.

Or he could just be dead. It is up to us to ensure that there are consequences in _this_ life.

You can be sure that Kerry, like the rest of the very rich, will be taking their money with them when they die.

The trusts have been set up so that the government doesn’t get a penny of their estates.

As for his eternal salvation, I leave that to the Lord.

This does bring up an interesting point regarding state residency. If one began just traveling around the country in a motor home, leaving one’s home state and selling all real estate there, how could one get a driver’s license and plates when not living in any state long enough to establish residency (usually 3 to six months)?

Illegals acrosss the country seem to have no problem doing this. My cousin’s wife was involved in a car accident a few years back that crushed her knee. That guy had no problem getting a license and owning a car without insurance. And she is left holding the bag for her medical care.

Another elected official who claims to represent the ‘working man’ yet neither lives,eats,vacations,nor sweats out a monthly budget like the working man.

Hypocrites.

What an interesting question:

Voting residency? Mail delivery? Renewing drivers’ license & tags? Paying local & State taxes? IRS mailing address?

Guess you could always claim you are an illegal immigrant & problems solved;)
