‘Even people in Hollywood owe the IRS. What’s the big deal?


Linda Brown

PRINCEVILLE — There are probably many people in Princeville and all over the United States who owe the IRS. Even people in Hollywood owe the IRS.

What’s the big deal?

The money that Mayor Everette- Oates owes the IRS is not Princeville’s money. This is corrupted behavior and it is down right wicked to research another personal record of hers!

 Her debt to the IRS does not have any effect of her performing her duties as the mayor.

People need to stop this mentality. Who is checking the checkers?

If the mayor’s records are so interesting and important to those inquiring minds, maybe we should check to see what every staff member owes the IRS or who’s claiming someone’s children’s as dependents.

I also think it would be a great idea to do criminal record check and random drug testing on all staff members.

As an Edgecombe County native, I follow The Daily Southerner online daily. Mayor Everette- Oates, you are doing a splendid job as mayor. Remember, no weapon formed against you shall prosper!
