    Why do people not file their taxes? I mean the IRS will get the money from you some how, do you really want to go to jail for that shit? Stupid shit. I guess he will have to make blade 18 to pay this off.

    you should probably give him the benefit of the doubt. my guess is that his accountant assured him that his taxes were being filed and probably charged him each year for services. this happens all the time. when your making that much loot all your financial work is delegated. free wesley!

    maybe. But isn't dude some anti-Federal-government survivalist militiaman? In which case he could be opposed to paying taxes on principle.
