ITA with everything you said. I'd be willing to bet that if you included deductions and loopholes in what % of taxes he pays per income that my partner and I actually pay more. We're sitting at right around 30% per year right now with a minimum of applicable deductions and no we do not make over 200k.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Wayne once and I will hold my tongue what I think of the fella.
I'll be sure to look up that piece and look forward to reading it with much anticipation. Just got my new copy of American Conservative in the mail and I would have even tossed up a link to a good article or two but I've already been tossed under the bus for being branded a heretic.

Now I'm curious as all get out. Toss me a pm on him if you ever feel like letting your tongue run free.
As for the links, post them anyway. From one heretic to another, I at least am interested and to heck with those that aren't. They post what they want to with impunity no matter how ridiculous so why should the rest of us hold back?

The owner is very smart and gives millions to charity...(100 million) and rather gives at to charity than over paying in taxes, like Obama wants to do

Because I'm just this cynical...I rarely trust anyone that gives that much away to be doing it for the sake of giving. The tax write offs they get from doing so are too great to make me buy it especially in light of his obvious feelings about taxes, his income and what he'll do to refrain from paying it.
