A mild-mannered young man, Phil Angelides graduated from Harvard and found success as a real estate developer.
Then one day it all changed when his business partner dumped over a million gallons of sludge into Lake Tahoe. Surveying the scene, Phil lost his footing and fell into the toxic stew.

He became – The Tax Man.
Now running for governor of California, The Tax Man has promised to take California backward -- doing the moonwalk as he puts it -- with $18 billion in new taxes.
