Taxed Enough Already

Nobody sucks on the government's tit like olympic athletes. Pay what you owe. . . .and if you don't want to pay, let the Chinese win.

Here here. I love what a stir this more than 30 year old tax law is now causing. Only one time has any athlete ever been taxed on a medal or award from an overseas competition and the was a boxer that had received a commemorative belt given to him overseas. The only reason this story exists is for a propaganda tool. Pity really.


Hope that helps,
