First, we learned that Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner failed to pay taxes he apparently knew he owed. Now health-tsar-designate Tom Daschle has acknowledged that he had to pay over $100,000 in back taxes and interest for a car and chauffeur he had after leaving the Senate – seems he was so used to having a driver, he just thought it was part of life.
No wonder the people who like big government always want higher tax rates – they have problems paying the taxes they owe, let alone voluntarily paying more.
