Fed salaries zoom, but taxes go unpaid

  So if you make a great deal of money (you're wealthy) and you claim you want higher taxes because it's simply not fair that you have SO much money and other people don't.
  But the truth is that, though they don't give much of anything away to charity, liberals really just want to redistribute your money to people they choose; and those are usually people who will benefit them politically.
  Obama, for example, took $400,000 in deductions rather than donate that money to the government to dispense to the needy.
  Conservative OUtlooks has the links and the story:
The “everyone but me” rule applies here.
Obama paid approximately $454,000 in taxes which amounts to 25% of his income, not the 30% he lectures should be paid by “millionaires,” and he is one. 
  Then you've got the federal employees who owe billions in back taxes.
Data from the Internal Revenue Service found that more than 279,000 federal employees and retirees owed $3.4 billion in back income taxes as of Sept. 30, 2010. 
The data showed that 467 employees of the House of Representatives, or about 4.2 percent of the workforce, owed more than $8.5 million. In the Senate, 217 employees, or about 3 percent of the workforce, owed $2.13 million. 
Obama's staff was not immune, either, with 36 people in Obama's executive office of nearly 1,800 workers — about 2 percent — owing the government $833,970 in back taxes. 
  You'll note that we've learned that federal workers make as much as Microsoft, only they're paid in tax dollars and Microsoft actually makes a product that people around the world buy.
  Note also that Obama's aides owe almost a million dollars. These are people who actually work directory for The Prince, who has decreed all must sacrifice. 
  Andrew Malcolm writes:
Nearly one-third of Obama's aides make more than $100,000 with 21 being paid the top White House salary of $172,200, each.  
The IRS' 2010 delinquent tax revelations come as part of a required annual agency report on federal employees' tax compliance. Turns out, an awful lot of folks being paid by taxpayers are not paying their own income taxes.
  Then Elizabeth Warren, the mother of the Occupy movement and Scott Brown's opponent, claims she's not wealthy, not guilty of having a generous portfolio, even though she made almost $800,000 last year and lives in a multi million dollar house:
“I realize there are some wealthy individuals – I’m not one of them, but some wealthy individuals who have a lot of stock portfolios" she told him. 
Hard to see how Warren wouldn't be, by most standards, wealthy, according to the Personal Financial Disclosure form she filed to run for Senate shows that she's worth as much as $14.5 million. She earned more than $429,000 from Harvard last year alone for a total of about $700,000, and lives in a house worth $5 million.
  In fact, you've got people like Pelosi claiming that she hasn't benefited from insider trading, even though it's pretty obvious she has. Not only liberals benefit from passing a bill from which they benefit financially but Pelosi is particularly egregious considering that she's self identifying with the OWS movement and claiming that the Republicans are the rich ones in the US trying to destroy government. 
  The truth is these people are rich*filthy rich, as they say* but they try to inoculate themselves against that truth by claiming to identify with the little guy like you and me. 
  Like Harry Reid, they try to avoid the "stink" of actually being near the little guys like you and me (I don't stink, btw) by claiming they love you so  much, they want your money, they hate "the rich," even while not giving anything much to charities or giving back anything to us to redistribute among ourselves or to ourselves.
  Examples of such hypocrisy and errant thinking abound, even among people who don't pay as much as Warren Buffett in taxes but make a lot of money and own two houses.
  Being rich is a good thing. It's pretty cool to be able to do whatever you want. But to be rich, claim you're not, and try to take the dollars that you and I earn to redistribute to their friends is from, well, Satan.
  There. I said. 
  The Devil loves what you're doing, Pelosi, Reid and Warren.
  Keep it up.
  You know where that'll end.
  Right?
