A huge leftist, not paying taxes? Who woulda thunk it?
And his excuse, even better...
Quote:
"First of all, I never met anyone in New Jersey who paid their taxes," Springsteen joked. "The entire state wasn't paying any taxes. So, years went by and all of this time went by. Nobody's paying any taxes. Me, the band, no one I know ... I didn't pay those taxes."
There ya go folks, if others don't do, why should you?
The point, the left states...the rich has to pay their FARE SHARE.....your leftist buddy, was NOT, including the entire band and evidently everyone in NJ....

Reason: deleted quoted post
No, Springsteen was drafted, reported for his medical exam, and got a 4F deferment based upon a concussion from a motorcycle accident the previous year, along with his 'crazy behavior' during the examination.

Reason: off topic
And if you think he is not a leftist, all you have to do is Google it....
Sheesh, Springsteen was an impoverished bar band guitar player until 1975 - wasn't making diddly money-wise. You actually think that the IRS goes after the small fish?
Your own cited article points out that Springsteen started paying taxes as soon as he struck it big. Kind of hard to hide from the IRS when you're on the cover of Time as the next big thing.

Oh yeah. But he's too easy too make fun of for a host of reasons. Same with kid rock. But Loretta Lynn and Wayne Newton might be a little tougher to Polk fun at......ok....maybe Loretta Lynn.

Nice gig. No taxes & he's one of the top recipients of farm subsidies despite not being a farmer.
