The guy who caught 756 owes the IRS $200k or more

This makes me want to puke all over our great American flag. Damn greedy government making everything that is fun and enjoyable, not so enjoyable anymore. They are so quick to stick their hand out in a situation like this it just makes me sick.
ChadTower:
The end result being that only someone very wealthy can have that ball. Doesn't matter who caught it, only someone rich can have it, because the average guy can't pay the income tax on it.
That's pretty much how a lot of things are working now.

Geez, that's a good way for the rich dude to decide it's easier to pay someone half that to kill you.

If I was him, I just wouldn't let an appraiser see it until it's time to sell. I figure that it has to be officially appraised for the government to actually collect...of course, I know nothing about tax law so who knows.
Here ya go though:
--- Quote ---Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'cause I'm the taxman,
yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'cause I'm the taxman,
yeah, I'm the taxman
If you drive a car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet
Taxman
'Cause I'm the taxman,
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for (ha ha Mr. Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more (ha ha Mr. Heath)
'cause I'm the taxman,
yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die
Declare the pennies on your eyes
'cause I'm the taxman,
yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me
