2. Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer

They are a long time married couple. When Thea passed away, Edith was hit with hundreds of thousands of dollars in federal taxes since her marriage was not federally recognized. She is the plaintiff in the DOMA case heard today by the Supremes.

4. Anita Bryant

Wondering what happened to her, my trip to Wikipedia was interesting and satisfying. She has gone broke more than once over her bigotry.

The fallout from her political activism hurt her business and entertainment career. Her contract with the Florida Citrus Commission was allowed to lapse in 1979 because of the controversy and the negative publicity generated by her political campaigns and the resulting boycott of Florida orange juice.

Bryant also spent part of the 1990s in the country music mecca of Branson, Missouri, where the state and federal governments filed liens claiming more than $116,000 in unpaid taxes. Bryant and Dry had also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Arkansas in 1997 after piling up bills from a failed Anita Bryant show in Eureka Springs, a tourist area in northwest Arkansas. Among the debts were more than $172,000 in unpaid state and federal taxes.....
