Cost of Tax Bribe Up 60%

Buried at the bottom of a Chicago Tribune article today about an honest tax collector’s results in the Philippines is the following:

Bureau of Internal Revenue Kim Henares cites informal intelligence from her mother, who hears from acquaintances that it now can cost 60 percent more to bribe an official for help in evading taxes as the government tightens its net.

“At some point, they will price themselves out of the market and it would be better for the taxpayer to just pay honestly,” Henares said. As “we keep on plugging all the leaks, then it will get harder and harder for people to cheat and for corruption to prosper.”

Another tax-related topic today, unrelated to the Philippines or bribery is that McHenry County’s property taxes are due today.

To remind people that real estate taxes were soon coming due, the McHenry County Treasurer paid for this notice to be put on the front page of the Northwest Herald.

Unlike income taxes, real estate taxes are no problem to collect.

Maybe a problem to pay, but not to collect.

Collection is not a problem because of the draconian penalties for non-payment–one loses the property.

Cost of Tax Bribe Up 60% — 24 Comments

  1. In reference to the real estate taxes notice that was put on the front page of the Northwest Herald, the headline states “Undersheriff withdraws complaint”.

    I am really shocked that this topic was not reported in this blog. Well, on a second thought, I shouldn’t be too shocked considering this was a noble act of true decentness by Andrew Zinke.

    Andrew Zinke has proven once again that rightness prevails over immorality and he seeks no vengeance.

    Andrew Zinke is an honorable man that has earned all of our respect.

    Well Done Mr. Sheriff!

  2. “Fukoku” = Kim Zinke It was not a noble act on Andy Zinke’s part…

    They didn’t follow through with the $5,000 fine, because they knew there would be community outrage.

    And they also knew the fine could further damage Zinkes Campaign.

    Not to mention, that Mark Gummerson would have looked bad and further damaged his career.

    The only thing Andy ZInke has proven is that he and his wife are a public relations disaster.

    Lastly, Andy Zinke is not an honorable man.

    He has demonstrated that because of the way he has run his campaign, condoned his wife’s behavior at a public parade and interfered with a DEA investigation by telling Brian Goode, the owner of Rita Corp, about the investigation.

    Take a pill and get in touch with reality…

  3. http://WWW.MCHENRYCOUNTY1981.COM Take a look at last weeks story on the Ethics Commission and Mark Gummerson.

    -This weeks story on “The Chicago Outfit and Their Political Fixers” The story is directly related to Mchenry County and Corruption. This is everyones issue not just the Mafia and the Government… No one wants to do anything until they find themselves in court and their lives are turned upside down because of a fix in a case.. Sometimes, people know there is a fix and other times they just think there is something wrong with the system. There is something wrong with the system; It is called CORRUPTION.

  4. Stalker Duncan, you are such an A$$ tick that you even followed me here.

    You are nothing more than a paid mule by Mr. Corruption himself, Louis Bianchi, to hunt me down in every post and discourage me in expressing the truth. Your Nazism will not work as I am compelled to fight immorality in McHenry County.

    Tell your Boss, the ringleader of corruption, that I will never give up and his mules’ unrealistic twisted attacks only makes me stronger.

  5. “Fukoku = Kim Zinke Do you realize how ridiculous you sound? Your statements and thought processes are completely “Delusional” Prove it Kim, that I am paid by anyone but my own company………. There is a correlation here. The worse Andy Zinke’s chances for for reelection are, the worse Kim ZInkes attempts to do damage control become.The real ring leaders of corruption are Andy Zinke and Keith Nygren and their entourage. Let’s not forget about that circus they run at the Mchenry County Sheriffs Department.. Though, we should keep in mind, that not all officers agree with what is going on.

  6. Proof! That’s funny coming from your big mouth A$$ tick. You are nothing more than a paid mule by Mr. Corruption to monitor the blogs and spread his evil corruption. Now that you did your job here, you can go back and watch your favorite television shows “Lets Make Deal” and “The Price is Right.”

    Hee Haw

  7. “fukoku” = Kim Zinke Those are not my favorite Tv shows. You might want to knock on the door of Judge Gordon Grahams chambers. Just in case you are looking for your husband, Andy Zinke, he will be there along with Keith Nygren and his entourage. Go ahead Kim find your favorite chair and have a seat. Don’t get too comfortable, because Andy and Keith will have to give up their empire very soon.

  8. The premature withdrawal by Zinke and Gummerson was because they knew they’d lose.

    It was grandstanding; that’s all.

    All bluff.

    Since Cal had to hire a lawyer to defend himself, he ought to have Attorney Hanlon file a complaint with the Ethics Commission for a frivolous complaint filed by Zinke/Gummerson regarding the $5,000.

  9. Stalker Duncan, as you should know by now, that righteous prevails over immorality as only the evil Empires will fall. One day the evil Empire of Mr. Corruption will fall and kick all you paid mules back to the used car lot where you belong.

    Hee Haw

  10. “fukoku” = Kim Zinke the more you talk, the more truly disturbed you sound.. Really. Hey, I hear your husband Andy Zinke was a no show at the Nunda Township Republican Picnic. There was no one at his table. “NO ONE” Whats the matter he can’t face the public anymore, because of all of his misdeeds? At least, Keith Nygren had enough courage to make an appearance… Though, he thinks he is invincible and no one can touch him. Greg Pyle never thought he would be sitting in a Federal prison and he is..

  11. ‘fukoku” = “Kim Zinke” = “Cuckoo” Stop the game playing Kim. Greg Pyle was an employee for Mchenry County Sheriffs Department. Your husband, Andy Zinke, knew he was creating pornography with his young son. Andy Zinke said it was a domestic issue and no one should interfere. Well, the Feds interfered and Greg Pyle now sits in Federal Prison. I am not telling you anything you did no already know Kim. Though, I am informing the public just in case they do not know.

  12. Fukcuckoo, why don’t you tell us all about Mr. Corruption’s illegal acts. Please give as many facts as you can. I am dying to read the whackjob account of county corruption. If you and your hubby have info about corruption why haven’t you gone to the feds ? The feds probably have a shrink that could decipher your nuttiness. Cuckoo, cuckoo. Take your meds.

  13. Just recently Mr. Corruption made a deal with Jack Pickup by reducing a Class 4 felony to misdemeanor harassment for sexual exploitation to a minor. This PIG, a Des Plaines former teacher is sexting messages to an eighth grade girl and Mr. Corruption lets him, like SO many others in this county walk free with a slap on the wrist.

    The fruits of corruption don’t fall far from the corrupted tree. Open your eye’s to the truth, Mr. Corruption supports Bill Prim, former police commander of the Des Plaines Police Department. Jack Pickup, a Des Plaines teacher that also worked for Senator Dan Duffy’s election campaign, which publicly endorses Bill Prim for McHenry County Sheriff. It’s not hard to follow the trail of the Taylor Street Boys if you open your eyes.

  14. Also let’s examine this corrupted plea bargain deal the ringleader approved. Mr. Corruption himself, Louis Bianchi used this plea bargain term to cover up a payoff and assist his corrupted allies in the Taylor Street Boys gang.

    Lets take a look at Jack Pickup charged with a Class 4 felony for sexual exploitation to a minor pleads guilty to a reduced charge to misdemeanor harassment. Every time a corrupted plea bargain deal is made, we hear the same BS justification, “we did get a conviction”. BFD! This PIG is still walking the streets and should be locked up under the full extent of the law.

    I do know the whole story, Jack Pickup was charged with the following:

    Child grooming: An action deliberately undertaken with the aim of befriending and establishing an emotional connection with a child.

    Sexual exploitation of a child: Exposed his sex organs for sexual arousal or gratification.

    Electronic harassment (domestic violence) against a child: Sexting messages to an eighth grade girl.

    All charges were dismissed with the exception of misdemeanor harassment. Under special conditions approved by Mr. Corruption himself, Louis Bianchi, his two-year sentence was discharged and his fines, costs, and fees were $3,035.00 along with only 200 hours of public service.

    How many more children will be victimized freely under Mr. Corruption himself, Louis Bianchi’s watch to protect his corrupted allies in the Taylor Street Boys gang?

  15. Now its your turn mules. Why don’t you tell us all about Andrew Zinke’s illegal acts.

  16. You are so predictable Stalker Duncan, just more of your “Bla Bla Bla!

    In reference to the book “Murder in McHenry” by Paul Scharff that you are trying so desperately to promote is not selling very well. I stated before that I read this book and I found it to be absolutely ludicrous.

    I could go into great length explaining the reasons why this book is an insult to anyone with common sense that reads it, but I just don’t want to waste my energy, it’s that appalling.

    I feel sad that Paul Scharff lost his Father at the age of 11 years old, but your pain will not heal with anger to harm others with fabrications. Attempting for the readers to believe that after 25 years Paul Scharff’s former babysitter, Holly Hager, asked her Father who killed Ron Scharff and was told Larry Neumann that lead her searching for Larry Neumann’s name on the internet, and his name came up on a serial-killer site is illusory.

    Everyone is trying to sell their books, even Frank Cullotta.

  17. ‘fukoku” = “Kim Zinke” Of course you would try to promote the book as being ludicrous. Your husband Andy Zinke, won’t even comply with a simple Freedom of Information Request from Paul Scharf to release the file. They won’t release the file because it would show that the Mchenry County Sheriffs office has covered up the “who done it” in this case for years. You are still confused Kim, because you are the one that is illusory and delusional. So far you are doing a bad job trying to protect any possibility Andy Zinke has left to win Sheriffs Election… Too much damage has been done by You and Andy Zinke to ever win any election. In fact, he has reached a point of no return..

  19. Oh Duncan…when you are not obsessing over Mr. Zinke’s wife and launching personal attacks on his family you are blaming him for being responsible and covering for a murder investigation that happened when he was in Jr. High School.

    Tighten the tin foil hat or the aliens are going to drive your obsession to have you believing that some family member of Mr. Zinke’s is responsible for the Kennedy assassination and the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa.

    The Prim campaign must be so proud how their online supporters spend so much time obsessing and attacking Mr. Zinke’s family…certainly no one on that side seems to be disapproving.
