If it really was illegal, the IRS would prosecute him, but they didn't. Why not?
And if loopholes are so bad, why were they not closed and persisted through both GOP and Democrat leadership? It is the system that made tax evasion possible that's at fault, not the people that are able to and do take advantage of loopholes.
- danharaj 8y agoAre you saying that everything illegal is immediately prosecuted upon discovery? That's a little unrealistic, don't you think?
- chmln 8y agoNo. The alleged tax fraud occurred in 1990s and to quote the article, "these maneuvers met with little resistance from the Internal Revenue Service." So they didn't find anything illegal neither at the time, nor at any time since then. I highly doubt this investigation will change anything.
