    Jay-Z Said: "wouldn’t mind paying more taxes if it went to the things that really mattered. If it went to education, to people in poverty, if it went to the right things, I wouldn’t mind".[6]

    He hates politics but did support Obama - so I would assume he is a liberal.

    Did you know that Jay-Z just purchased a house for 200 million dollars.

    He is worth 2.5 billion dollars

    He has given a lot to charity - but from the quote Jay-Z said - he could give a lot more.

    Its not what you give, its how much you could give.....

    especially when you think of the widows mite......

    If Jay-Z doesn’t think he is paying enough in taxes, he should simply write a check to the IRS for whatever additional amount he thinks is fair. He could put a note with the check expressing his desire it be spent in education.

    What these multi-billionaires mean when they say “I don’t mind paying higher taxes” is they support government taking more money from everyone and wasting it on liberal policies.

    In other words, he wants to be generous, not only with his money, but everyone else should be forced to be generous as well.

    Hey Jay-Z!!! Why not say, “I wouldn’t mind paying higher taxes if I knew the politicians wouldn’t somehow lose a couple hundred billion dollars from every spending package they pass.”

    Does anyone really believe no one knows where all that money goes?

    peace to you
