McCains' Tax Woes Big Enough to Be Seen by Google Earth
Newsweek reports that John and Cindy McCain have failed to pay property taxes on their beach-front condo in La Jolla, California for the last four years. The McCains own at least seven residences through Cindy's various trusts and corporations, so as you can imagine, it's pretty tough to keep them all straight. If McCain can't even pay his own taxes promptly with his wife's millions, how in the world does he expect to solve our mortgage crisis and recession?
For more on how hard it is to be a multi-millionaire, check out The Jed Report's Google Earth tour of the McCain estates.
