Tell me again how government does such a wonderful job protecting the weakest & most vulnerable.
- growupkids 13y agoDC is notoriously slimy with taxes. It's not surprising that they would do something like this. For example, DC tries to trick VA and MD based businesses into paying corporate taxes in DC if they work with the federal government based on the unsound lie that because the federal government is based in DC any business that works with the Feds must pay DC taxes. Even if that business never sets foot in DC, or works with a single federal person in DC. Thankfully VA and MD don't recognize this twisted logic.

- muzz 13y agoYes many of us would-- in the case of the subject of the article, it would've only required $134 if done early enough (before it snowballed to $4,999). An important part of the article is that the subject profiled had dementia and was thus may not have been able to understand what was going on and was basically taken advantage of, albeit legally.
