Taxes: the housebuilder scenario and the lightsaber
A host complains about tax-settlement commercials ('I owed a million-five and settled for $1.50'). Dave Funk concedes people should pay taxes but argues for looking at circumstances: his scenario of a homebuilder who made $500k/year for five years then got wiped out by the banking collapse deserves a break, because he'll rebuild and contribute again. The segment ends with a lightsaber joke, Dave apologizing to Ben by name, and the MRI callback.
