if they are like Trump, they can game the system or have Congress provide loopholes.

Does this mean he expects the federal government to actually pay him a salary for being a tax cheat?

(20,202 posts)9. The great thing is that the only way he can prove he did pay taxes
is to release his tax returns. His 1995 loss could be used to offset income through 2010, but my guess is that he had some more years in the red, so he may STILL not be paying any income tax.
You know what else is disgusting? He gets a $110K pension from NBC every year.
