What is it about Dems? They all yap about wanting higher taxes, yet they don't pay taxes themselves. Oh, I guess that makes sense. Look at Facebook for example, who pushed the Obama agenda, made huge contributions to his campaign, worships at the alter of Obama (meaning they promote and approve of his agenda) yet they PAY NO INCOME TAXES. Same for GE and lots of other huge companies and individuals who hoisted Obama up on the pedestal for everyone to bow down to. Look how John Kerry shuffled his yacht around to avoid paying his "fair share" of taxes in his home state. Dems make me vomit.
Just last week, Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu argued during a Capitol Hill hearing that the government needs more tax revenue.
But in a twist of hypocrisy, the Louisiana senator and her husband appear to have not yet paid $1,206.95 in tax penalties to the District of Columbia government on their Capitol Hill home, The Daily Caller has learned.
According to public records available online in the District of Columbia’s “Real Property Assessment Database,” the D.C. government has penalized Landrieu $1,003.33, plus $202.62 in interest, for 2012 taxes on her mansion on East Capitol Street. It is unclear what the penalty is for.
The online records indicate that the penalty was still outstanding as of Feb. 2. A spokeswoman for Landrieu did not immediately respond to an email from TheDC on Sunday asking for more information.
While the property is listed in the name of her husband, Frank Snellings, online search result listings indicate that the East Capitol home is Landrieu’s address.
The house is worth about $2.3 million dollars, according to online assessments.
Just last week during a Capitol Hill hearing, Landrieu argued for higher taxes, saying “the reality” is “that the revenues coming in to the government are the lowest level since President Eisenhower was the president.”
