FF, i don't think actual paid taxes matters as much as campaign contributions and good press (it helps to own and control the media).

my guess is a lot of these super rich get out of paying taxes one way or the other - and that's fine with the government they control b/c of campaign contributions and good press they can shower on their puppets.

who was it that said "taxes are for little people?"
