Psycho Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 MAYOR ADRIAN FENTY'S BIGGEST SUPPORTERS DON'T PAY TAXES Some of Mayor Fenty's biggest supporters in DC do everything they can to avoid paying taxes to DC and leave the burden of supporting DC on the back of the middle class and poor. It is no hidden secret that the "White Community" of DC was a big supporter (87% of white people voted for Fenty) of Mayor Fenty. We decided to go out to five of Fenty's biggest white backing communities of DC like Hillandale in Ward 2 and others to show voters something. We walked up and down every street around dusk to take pictures of the cars parked in the driveways of these $1,000,000 homes to make a big point. (This was a 16 week study) That point is, out of 2,500 such homes, over 1,720 of these homes belonging to those wealthy Fenty supporters do no have DC tags on their car. Most have Virginia, Maryland, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Louisiana and anything but DC tags. The point is, many of Fenty's supporters may have their biggest or only home in DC, contributed to Fenty's political campaigns, but they do everything they can not to list their official residence in DC for purposes of paying taxes but pay them elsewhere. The sad fact is, Mayor Fenty knows who these people are, gladly accepted their money but will do nothing to stop their really living in DC but registering elsewhere to avoid DC taxes.
