They say hindsight is 20/20. Therefore, Helio Castroneves is so, so sorry he scammed millions of dollars off the government. After pleading not guilty to tax fraud reportedly, Helio cried throughout his hearing.

TMZ is reporting that bond was set at $10 million — $8 mil of which is security, from one of Helio's accounts in the Netherlands.

His lawyer and sister were also arraigned, as they both were in on the tax scheme. Castroneves allegedly used an offshore shell company to hide his earnings from the IRS.

    I feel for Helio. I'm sure he gave his trust to someone who was not trustworthy. Agents are nothing but low-life bottom feeders and will take you for everything you've got if you are not hands- on in everything that goes on with your money. Hopefully Helio will pay what's owed and be vindicated and never, ever hire another agent again.

    Good for him. You have to screw the government any way you can. All they do is tax you to death and waste the money. I'm glad he kept what he earned. That is less money they can waste on welfare, pork projects and the stupid war. F**k washington right in the ass. Bring him out in handcuffs and leg rions real nice touch. Meanwhile Dick Cheney and Rove are out walking around. WTF is up with that? Now there are two goons that should have been locked up long ago…
