Why is the Secret Service paying Biden to protect him and why is Biden taking TAX deductions for it?

He's just like every Liberal out there. They have that me-first mentality. Liberals will go the distance in finding loop-holes in the tax code to avoid paying taxes. But, they want to close those same loop-holes to Conservatives. You know, it has been a proven fact that Conservatives give more to Charities. Even those Charities that Liberals say that they support.

This is another example of why the tax laws need to be changed. Our current tax laws work on a sliding scale, unfortunately the scale slides towards the money. In our system the more you make the more you are allowed to keep and with all of the available loopholes, there is a lot of money at the top. It has been said many times and many places that money is the root to all evil. It is something about it for those that don't have it, but they desire it and given the circumstances will be willing to do almost anything to get it. Those that have it no matter how nice they are they are not just going to give it away and there are those that have it and are willing to do anything to get more of it.

I sit in that 28% percent tax bracket, work two jobs, get paid every week and still can't afford to take my wife out for a nice dinner and a movie. He made more than I did last year in that rental income only. And sadly if I was in his position I probably would have taken that legal tax break myself. I don't care on which side of the street you live, it is an unfair system. That's the number one reason that they want President Obama sidelined, in their world he is a whistle blower. America there is a lot of money sitting on the sidelines now collecting interest while most Americans are living day by day, losing money everyday Know that money is being taken away from us. VOTE DEMOCRAT 2012. and close the tax gap.

i am not by any means a biden fan. but this is a simple law of market value. he could rent that out to anyone for a price, probably more than what he's getting from the ss. if they came to an arrangement that works for both, it's good, not bad.

if the Secret Service was protecting me, I would put them up in a spare room and even make them dinner. If I had a spare "cottage" they could stay there for free

These eltist politicians will always get away with this. They wont stand and put a stop to this because they are all doing it. When things are too hard for them to cover up, nothing happens to them anyway ala TIme Geithner and Charles Rangel

btw....I keep seeing Jill BIden on a commercial saying that we need to give more to whatever organization it is she is representing....I thought they would have pulled that by now

You are not taking into consideration that Biden provides Prostitutes for the secret service so they do not mind paying extra, saves the taxpayers money by not having to send them to Columbia. (DAYDOOM sayed it.)

Because that Secret Service needs a command post on his property, and there's no other place for them to be, so they lease that from him.

And just because he rents out some of his property doesn't mean that he is disqualified from taking the same residential mortgage deduction that you and I get to take.

You must not know about rental properties in America.

A lot of people have them for tax savings purposes...

Wow, you twisted the heck out of this one or you did not read your source. Nice try. Remember just the facts, maam.

Its a scam Biden knows how to play the system and he does. They should say hey Joe your on your own
