Remember John Kerry, the former Secretary of State and
Massachusetts Senator, the guy who routinely advocated higher taxes but then
made sure to protect his own wealth? Not only did he protect much of his
fortune in so-called tax havens, he even went through the trouble of domiciling
his yacht outside of his home state to minimize his tax burden.
I did not object to Kerry’s tax avoidance, but I was irked
by his hypocrisy. If taxes are supposed to be so wonderful, should not he have
led by example?
