Several on FR have suggested that we help Joe the Plumber with his back taxes. I did some research and it seems he lives close to the Huntington Bank Spring Meadows Branch,
7203 Airport Highway
Holland, oh 43528-7829
Phone: (419) 254-7023
I spoke with a very nice lady there who thought I was joking about opening an account for Joe to help him with his back taxes.
What we need is for someone with a registered charity in Ohio or some registered business to open an account for Joe (real name: Samuel J. Wurzelbacher) After it is open please post the routing and account info so we can transfer money in.
We will then need to let Joe know and arrange access for him. Go Joe the Plumber the FReepers have your back.
Can you clarify your position?
Tell me you’re not comparing a bunch of FReepers voluntarily helping someone out with forced wealth redistribution.
Let Joe pay his own damn taxes. What’s wrong with you people?
The Joe I saw will hit you with a pipe wrench if you offer charity to him.
I think people are reacting to the attacks he has been receiving and want to help. I see nothing wrong with that.
If reports are true, he has LOST HIS JOB because he asked Obama a simple question.
I don't think it's an insult to try and help him against the thugs on the left. I sent him a check to day for 50$, and noted if he didn't want the money, to send the check back, or donate the money to military/veterans causes. This isn't just an assault on Joe. It's an assault on the middle class, and tyrannical attempt to “chill” other average Joe's from speaking up. All Joe did was ask a question, and Obama exposed himself as a Marxist in his response.
You could probably do it without Paypal noticing, but if it was noticed the account might be terminated. I use paypal a lot (even though I sort of hate them) so I wouldnt want to take the risk.
I think our Ohio lawyer is a much better solution.
Agreed.
I do. He put himself in this situation. Let him use his own wits to get out of it.
Tipping Hillary's waitress is one thing. This is just plain dumb.
count me in.
No one is forcing you to help. If other folks want to chip in a few bucks of their own money, I dont see why it bothers you.
Some people buy lottery tickets, some buy cigarettes, some want to help Joe.
Your cash do what you want...... Make the guy rich for a day. Just remember he's only one vote and he was where he was to see Obama.

“I do. He put himself in this situation. Let him use his own wits to get out of it.”
Not a real people person, are ya?
IIRC Obama was going door to door.
It's a total embarrassment for the entire FR site and conservative movement for people to participate in such a charade.
Yes please on the paypal.
If someone wants to set up a Paypla great. i will not do business iwht them.
Count me in for setting up a site for donations pro bono.
Maybe not, but I understand welfare when I see it. This is just privatized welfare.
