A former housekeeper testified that she heard Helmsley say: "We don't pay taxes. Only the little people pay taxes."Helmsley denied having said it, but the words followed her until her death last August at age 87.The court decision, made April 30, became public Monday.Come on, Wel all pay taxes but look at what out tax dollors went to.
