Pretty sure there has been a law/clause written exempting their medals from any income tax. this happened last Olympics and is a good example of the right grasping at stupid issues instead of focusing on majors...

That'll teach those arrogant bastards to try and be good at something. How dare they! The IRS will take them down a peg or two. <sarcasm>

Simply disgraceful what we've become.
