Why isn't the Paul campaign making negative commercials over this? This is overt criminal activity?

Why?

Read the comments as well. When are we going to raise hell over this?

I wish we could all find a way to pay less taxes

Leave it alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never. I applaud anyone that doesn't pay taxes.

Never. I applaud anyone that doesn't pay taxes.

That about sums it up.

He is using his influence to evade taxes...a privilege that you and I do not have. Now, we have rule of law here folks. You are suppose to declare all foreign accounts to the IRS. If you or I did this, we would be slammed against the wall. This is criminal activity.

 

[maryiscontrary]

Ron may not agree with taxation, but you can bet he complies with the letter of the law regarding his own returns.

It's criminal to take money from an individual without consent. I call it theft. And I sure as hell am not going to call someone out for KEEPING THEIR MONEY.

This is a horrible issue to go after someone with in the GOP primary.

Ron may not agree with taxation, but you can bet he complies with the letter of the law regarding his own returns.

Yes, and he calls people like Irvin Schiff "heroes"... And they are heroes.

Huh? It says right in the article you linked to that ALL taxes have been paid on the account. This is a nonstarter of an issue.

pfft, even tax professionals don't agree on what the actual letters of the law are.

 

[thoughtomator]

the real criminals in that scenario are, as the others noted, the thieves and mafiosi who demand to spend money they didn't earn

 

[rpwi]

The OP is right...Mitt should be getting more flack over this. It's one thing to avoid a unfair law...it's another to avoid an unfair tax, when you are quite wealthy and others will have to shoulder the difference.

 

[maryiscontrary]

I am just sayin...he is using his privilege to evade the law. This is criminal. They have never been able to find smut like this on Ron.

You can bet the Romney would put his Geitner clone in to slam YOU against the wall if you did that. If a president is supposed to be commander in chief, and he can break the law while throughing your butt in prison or put liens on your bank account for much lessor evasion, how can you support this?

My god this country is going to hell if he or Obama is elected.

 

[maryiscontrary]

Yes, he only did this years after the fact...ooppsy...forgot to disclose a measly 3 million in Swiss bank account...

 

[maryiscontrary]

Would you get the same treatment? No, they would come after us like sharks. And you know what...it is only gonna get worse guys. We are so complete broke as a nation that they will go after us like a pack of hyenas in the next few years. What recourse do we little guys have?

1. Sea Steading
2. Move to Singapore
3. We all invade a state, take over, succeed and watch the rest of the country admire us.
