US needs a system like PAYE in Britain. If you're employed the deduct exactly the right amount of tax, and it self corrects though the year.

If Manafort hadn't hitched his wagon to the Trump train no one would have ever known his name...AND He would still be in business. Proves that Trump is poison to all who associate with him in business or politics, crooks or used to be honest men....Dont even mention the voters, who cares about them. Republicans dont.

Oh yeah. Don't think for one minute that Mueller isn't keeping the Manhattan DA and the equivalent law enforcement officer with jurisdiction in CA apprised of the Manafort family's travails in real estate. Plenty of possible state charges to go around with bank fraud, mortgage fraud, etc... Not to mention the civil suits that will be filed by the lenders to try pick up the financial scraps after Mueller's forfeiture action essentially bankrupts the whole family.

In my experience with construction loans, the lender usually seeks updates on the status of the construction, copies of contracts with vendors, and doesn't release all of the money at one time. Makes you wonder what was going on at the bank...
