The facts are Janine owed $79,136 on the day she was sentenced , keep in mind she isn't a high school grad ,and it was for a 8 year period , this crime was a passive one ( she didn't have a good accountant or any ) She was convicted of a misdemeanor not a felony, she's the only inmate at the Federal Correctional Institution at Victorville’s Medium Security serving time on a misdemeanor,...What kind of ex is Jesse James for not helping out the mother of his 5 year old daughter? , his net worth is $200+ million ( he made $20 million + on merchandise sales alone last year) and Since Janine was sentenced on December 30th, four major administration appointees have admitted they failed to pay their taxes! First was Commerce Secretary nominee Bill Richardson, who actually “was under investigation by a grand jury for pay-to-play kickback schemes” … and we doubt he declared that income! His punishment? Fading away back to being the Governor of New Mexico {the Guv with Luv Handles}. Next, Treasury designate Tim Geithner—the “brilliant” banker asked to ease our economic crisis had to repay $64,849 to the Internal Revenue Service for a six-year period from 2001-2006, but somehow “was not fined for late payment.” He was then easily confirmed to oversee the I.R.S.!! Third, former Finance and Ethics Committee scion of the Senate, Tom Daschle, left a well-paid position at the Center for American Progress {and wishful thinking} to accept a job as Secretary of Health and Human Services…only to withdraw “after having failed to pay $140,167 for three years of owed taxes and interest,” though not as yet “thousands of dollars in additional unpaid taxes” for the use of a lobbyist’s private car and driver. As the tax auditors might say: “Paying back’s a bitch!” Which brings us to notable Nancy Killefer, tapped to be the nation’s first Chief Performance Officer in the new administration…until that little matter of a 2005 tax lien placed on her home for failure to pay unemployment taxes on household help. Maybe the erstwhile “Efficiency Czar” can now return to her recent 3-year gig as Chairperson of the IRS Oversight Board!.....Got to love the American Justice System (I'm Canadian ,We are slowly becoming George Bush lite ) The U.S incarcerates at 5x's the next nearest G8 country ( on average 3x's longer sentence ) and your homicide rate is also 10x's higher ,....Go 'git your Gun....You guys almost got V.P Sarah Palin (she never met a book she ever read ) and you would have deserved it!!!!!!
(Ok, as long as your not some ultra rich person with a tax shelter I guess. Then the government lets you get away with it, or even allows it.)
