30 months, eh? I'd be interested in knowing how much taxes this scofflaw owed for those 9 years. 30 months might not be too bad if the amount was large enough.

It's amazing to me that there are still people trying to convince others that they need not pay their federal taxes. I hope those who are considering this take note of this prison sentence and do the right thing.

I, for one, am tired of paying these scofflaws' taxes for them. Let them pay their share of the burden or lock 'em up.

I don't know about the prison deterent? I am 43 right now. When I'm 50, I think I might like not doing the wash, cooking, cleaning, farm chores, walking on eggshells around my family.

30 months might just be a break for me. Play cards with guys, sleep a lot, exercise, do a lot of reading I've been wanting to do, and such.

Can I just get the time off even without the crime conviction?

How high would taxes have to get before you balked and quit paying? Is there a limit? Or do you figure as long as your neighbors vote to take it away from you, it's ok, no matter how much, or how it's spent?

The ironic thing is that, for the next two and half years or so, the quality of his living conditions - especially the menu - will be directly related to the willingness of other people to pay their taxes.

Hm... 30 mo's... during two "good" business years, I could exchange $120,000 for 30 mo's in jail. But my son would have the money. It might be a good trade.

Willie Nelson didn't go to jail - probably owed a lot more taxes too.
