Hates the Catholic church and organized religion, hates Bush and capitalism, supports healthcare reform..Yep real conservative there. /s
He apparently had two failed business in California which the state shut down...probably for not following the requirements of the Universal Commercial Code and for not paying his taxes. He apparently did not pay his taxes in Texas either.
In his manifesto, no make that girliefesto, he blames everyone—the state, George Bush, the Congress back in the mid-1980s (especially Daniel Patrick Moynihan), the IRS employees, his accountant, everyone that is but himself.
He appears to have been hanging out with groups who claim you don’t have to pay income taxes. While he claims he wanted to be independent, he appears not to have wanted the responsibilities of an independent contractor such as paying taxes, finding clients, performing to the terms of the contract, etc.
It was also all about him. He burned down the house he shared with his now widow and her teenage daughter depriving them of a place to live (though I suspect the house was headed for foreclosure based on his claim not to have had any income and his wife only having less than $15,000 of income.)
He must not have been very good with money. He kept talking about having to tap his retirement savings. There is a severe penalty for taking early withdrawals from an IRA. He probably forgot to pay that tax penalty too, just as his first wife listed $126,000.00 in debt to the IRS when she filed for bankruptcy in the late 1990s.
I suspect with his railing against organized religion and the Catholic Church in particular that he moved to Austin because he was an atheist.
Sounds like the perfect Obama voter.
