Does this mean the new administration will have difficulty collecting delinquent taxes because of a change in attitude about delinquency?

It just amazes me that this guy can have so many problems, half of which would land Wesley Snipes, or the rest of us in jail, and to the Democrats in Congress it's "not an issue".

What the heck?

no worries--the guy paid his past-due taxes immediately because he knows that he can make 10x that amount during his first year in the the Obama admin.
 
So--I wonder how property tax collections will go next month.
