McCains Don't Pay Home Taxes For 4 Years

Rich elitists don't have to pay taxes.
McCains Owed 4 Years of Taxes on Home
According to HuffPo and via ThinkProgress:

The article reports that the McCains had been delinquent in paying
taxes until Newsweek inquired about the matter. The McCains then paid off
$6,744.42 in back taxes, but still owe more. Newsweek writes:

When you’re poor, it can be hard to pay the bills. When you’re rich, it’s
hard to keep track of all the bills that need paying. It’s a lesson Cindy McCain
learned the hard way when NEWSWEEK raised questions about an overdue
property-tax bill on a La Jolla, Calif., property owned by a trust that she
oversees. […]

County officials say the trust still owes an additional $1,742 for
this year, an amount that is overdue and will go into default July 1.

Told of the outstanding $1,742, the aide said: “The trust has paid all bills
shown owing as of today and will pay all other bills
due.”


That settles that.

John McCain is
the epitome of a

modern day "GOP fiscal conservative."


Trust fund babies that can't balance their own checkbooks,
nevermind the budget of a country.

Any bets on whether McCains used the unpaid home taxes as writeoffs against their income? Both John and Cindy need to open up all of their books for public scrutiny.
