Dodging taxes
I heard about this story the other day, but forgot to blog about it. So here it is.
Senator John Kerry bought a yacht. Instead of bringing it home to Massachusetts, he docked it in Rhode Island - well over an hour away by car. Coincidence? I think not.
Rhode Island is the only state in the north that does not charge luxury and docking taxes. Had Kerry brought the boat home, he'd have paid $430K in sales taxes, and another $70K per year in annual excise taxes.
Once again, Democrats dodge taxes themselves, but want to tax you and I into oblivion. And it's not about having a fair society. It's not about helping the less fortunate. It's not even about programs that are "needed." No, the taxation is about control.
