Mitt Romney Tax Returns May Have Employed Legally Dubious Maneuvers, Tax Experts Say

Posted: 08/24/2012 12:09 pm Updated: 08/24/2012 1:25 pm


WASHINGTON -- Tax experts who have begun to examine the Bain Capital documents released Thursday by Gawker are raising questions as to whether presumptive GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney has paid all the taxes he owed.

At issue are two tax-avoidance techniques employed by Bain Capital, the firm founded by Romney, which have been commonly used in the private equity world but have come under increasing legal scrutiny.

tax the rich. hit them hard. make the rich finally start paying their fare share, and please include their pensions, stock options, annual incentive, etc., because taxes on one million salary is one thing, but taxes on annual incentive, stock options, and other perks, well, that's another story. tax it all the same. this is the top paid exec. out of 100 examples in Houston area alone recently ;

While you are checking, could you also check on obamas college records and his visas. Oh could you check and see if they found his original BC instead of the fake one.
Thank you for wanting to get to the bottom of all the candidates records.

WOW he used LEGAL MANUVERS, :shock: Tell us Flounder did Tim Geighner use Legal manuvers to cheat on his taxes while he was working for the FED and before he was appointed by Obama to run the DOT? Did Dashel uses legal manuvers to cheat on his taxes while he was a Senator/lobbyist? Did any of the Obama appointees use LEGAL Manuvers to CHEAT on their taxes before Obama gave them the knod to join his Administration? You really have a great story that states Romney might have used LEGAL MANUVERS TO FILE HIS TAXES. :roll:

When are you going to post another article about Romney's dog? So I can remind you your guy ATE A DOG. :wink:

Oh and how about an article about the Republicans WAR ON WOMEN so I can bring one that reports that Obama's White House does not believe in equal pay for White House employees when it comes to WOMEN. Or maybe one about when it comes to un employment the rate is rising fast among women than it is for men under the Obama policies.

How about one on Ryan's Medicare plan where Obama claimes it kills Medicare for the elderly when in fact it doesn't affect anyone over 55. So I can bring up the fact that Obama's $716 billion cuts to Medicare will bankrupt hospitals and force doctors that are already in short supply to leave practice.

Or maybe you would like to bring up Obama's National Security Record so I can bring up stories about how his White House is leaking Top Secret Intel that is endangering US citizen and US allies lives.

No wait how about you bring up Obama's fund raising ability so I can bring up stories about how his campaign is out spending his ability to raise money sort of like how he is out spending the US tax payers ability to raise money so he can waste it on mouse habitat and turtle tunnels.

Let's put Romney's Business record Up against Obama's OK. OH wait Obama the community organizer doesn't have a record in business does he. Maybe that is why the US is head over a FISCAL CLIFF and into a MAJOR recession early next year according to the CBO. :x

Reid’s Glass House
Democratic senators have offshore accounts.


“Most Americans don’t have the benefit of Swiss bank accounts or tax shelters in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda.” And Gawker just published more than 950 pages of Bain documents related to Romney’s offshore holdings, saying they detail his use of “exotic tax-avoidance schemes available only to the preposterously wealthy.”

Some of the “preposterously wealthy” Americans who do use such “schemes” include Senators Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.), Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.), Frank Lautenberg (D., N.J.), and John Kerry (D., Mass.). That should be music to Reid’s ears, since his transparency crusade might be a little easier to pull off within his own party.

He could start with Feinstein. OpenSecrets.org lists her as the seventh-wealthiest senator, with a net worth between $44 million and $94 million, according to her latest disclosure forms. And, just like Romney, she keeps a portion of it in offshore accounts. Her most recent reports say she has an unspecified amount (at least $1 million) “held independently by the spouse or independent child” in Coral Growth Investments, Ltd., in St. Peter Port, Guernsey. Guernsey, a tax haven, is a small island in the English Channel that early this year drew the ire of a British Labour-party leader for helping wealthy Brits dodge taxes. The California senator also has between $500,000 and $1 million in a fund called Cevian Capital II L.L.C. in Jersey, another of the Channel Islands. According to her latest forms, that holding generated between $15,000 and $50,000 in capital gains, interest, and dividends. Feinstein has another $1,000 to $15,000 in Mauritius, an island nation in the Indian Ocean off Madagascar that is an up-and-coming tax haven.
