Letter: Even winners should pay their share
Wednesday, August 15, 2012
The medal winners of the Olympic Games should pay income tax on their winnings because President Obama says no one achieves anything on their own. They didn't do it on their own, so they should pay their fair share. Do you think the President will explain this to the medal winners at their reception at the White House? After all, this country is broke and it needs all the taxes it can collect for Michelle Obama's and her staff's expenses at the Games.
