Gray Davis that he release his tax forms smacked of Karl Marx and "Big Brother."
Simon, responding to a call from Davis to prove he had paid his "fair share" of taxes, insisted he would not make the information public. "I mean, that sounds like somebody coming out of Moscow, you know? 'Their fair share,' " he told KSFO 560 radio host Brian Wilson on Tuesday. "You know, Karl Marx talked like that . . . and there's going to be Big Brother that's going to decide what your 'fair share' is," Simon said. "That is not a concept that is contained in the Internal Revenue Code. "
