John Kerry promises 'prompt' tax payment for yacht
Quote(Sen. John Kerry has told the Massachusetts Department of Revenue he will pay all the taxes due on his new $7 million yacht despite basing the vessel in tax-free Rhode Island.)
One wonders whether this extremely wealthy Democrat has had a change of mind due to his (ahem, conscience) or the media attention he has received for
1) Ordering his yacht to be made overseas, by foreigners.
2) Deciding to berth his brand new foreign built yacht in tax free Rhode island instead of his home state of Massachusetts.
I sincerely doubt that Obama will be overly enraptured that Kerry ignored the fact that American workers working in America are equally up to the task of building a yacht.
So much for Democrats seeking to reduce unemployment in the US.
I leave the guessing to you folks!
