All these nominees need to do is stand up and say "The Tax Code is too complicated, I honestly didn't know I owed the money" and then say. We are going to work to make it simpler for people to pay their taxes so mistakes like this don't happen in the future. Then all would be forgiven. The fact that the US Tax Code is over 40,000 pages long, no wonder so many nominees didn't pay all their taxes. I bet if I was audited I'd owe taxes too. To the best of my knowledge and in good faith I've paid all that I owe, but I'm sure there is something I should have claimed that I didn't that would make me owe more than I already paid. The Tax Code sucks and they need to fix it, the Democrats just need to own up to it instead of cowering when they screw up. You know if they passed the Fair Tax all of Barack's nominees would have been confirmed because there would be no tax issues to disqualify them.
