9. I was never really a big fan of this guy.. Not going to hate on him but just wanted to say he is no different then anyone else.. Making as much as he does, he really thinks he can get away with it?

10. I am really sure people like him really do their own taxes and come up with ideas to scam the IRS. NOT! They hire people to do their accounting and taxes and rely on them to take care of things.
I think he is the scapecoat on this as was Willie Nelson and others years ago. The people who do his work should be the ones in trouble but they have already covered their you -know- whats.

11. I know that anyone is innocent until proven guilty, But come on folks.
How in the world can anyone fail to or even not verify any recording from filing taxes? And for 7 years at that?
How in the world can one accuse of being targeted and was a scapegoat when obvious SOMEONE in the system has records of almost 12 (NOT HUNDREDS) million dollars in fraudulently claimed refunds???
If it were you, I, or the next person we would have already been wiped out of our financial assets and taken to the cleaners already.

HMMMMMMMMM WE SHALL SEE

12. I feel soooo dissappointed Wesley put himself in such lurch. C'mon, Wes, Im in hollywood too, but have not made big like you did, but on my way, But! I've been paying taxes since the eighties. With all your millions, what ARE YOU THINKING? You've just destroyed your fan base. I used to be very proud of you. I do pray that at the end of the day, you're right, and the IRS is wrong. C'mon now!

13. I don't care who, what, where you are....laws are made for a reason. Either learn to live within them, strive to change them, or move. If he doesn't want to pay taxes it would be really easy for him to give up his US citizenship and declare it in a nation that doesn't have an income tax. I'm sure he could go to the UN and find all sorts of nations that would love to add his income to their GDP account.

15. Both state and federal income taxes are illegal and always have been: much like freedom of speech, the US is one of the only countries that has it enshrined in the constitution that plebiscites are required, as well as majority votes, for non-proportional taxation. While property taxes, water taxes, school taxes, etc, and many other local taxes were agreed to, neither state nor federal taxes have ever been. Ever.
