Disregarding the law includes non-enforcement of constitutionally passed gun laws, immigration laws, drug laws, etc.
Likewise, refusing to prosecute "my people" builds resentment in those who are not considered "my people".
Likewise, tax evasion:
"Rangel Rule" would give taxpayers a free pass on penalties
All U.S. taxpayers would enjoy the same immunity from IRS penalties and interest as House Ways and Means Chairman Charles Rangel, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, Tom Daschle, and Harry Reid if a bill introduced becomes law.
The bill calls for the elimination of all IRS penalties and interest for paying taxes that are past due. The bill is named for Charles B. Rangel, and the official name is, the Rangel Rule Act of 2009, HR735. The rule would "prohibit the Internal Revenue Service from charging penalties and interest on back taxes against U.S. citizens." The proposal includes a provision whereby taxpayers could escape the assessment of penalties by writing on their tax forms "Rangel Rule."
