    A Republican family member was telling me about how their (multi-millionaire) nephew’s (multi-millionaire) dad was trying to evade avoid taxes on a boat he purchased. The Canadian resident was buying a boat for his vacation home in Florida - already multiple capital offenses in my opinion but I’m not king of the world, yet.

    I don’t recall the details but he thought he could purchase a boat in the Great Lakes region, sail through CAN and down to FL and avoid taxes. When he hit CAN waters the customs officers said, okay well this is a brand new purchase you’re going to have to pay tax on it. The rich guy hemmed and hawed that he was just passing through for a few hours and this is so unreasonable! I think he ended up having to pay what he properly owed.

    Anyway I try not to let my real freak self show around family, but to this story I couldn’t help but miming and exclaiming “This is me playing the world’s tiniest violin!” and the person telling the story said basically, “Yeah when nephew was telling me this story I thought ‘Why are you telling me this? Why did you think this would be sympathetic?’” Sorry for the shaggy dog story but my point is that even people who ought to be in the pandering demographic for this have zero fucking patience for this bullshit.

    like most boat-buying patriotic Americans, I like to navigate my boat right alongside the rear entrance of an abandoned Kmart.

      You think that’ll happen at all? I’d love to see it if it does.
