Romney hiding his fortunes in overseas banks and rich jerks renouncing USA citizenship to avoid taxes?

What kind of respect and loyalty do rich people have for this country they so profess they love so much? They rather take the money and run after they're done profiting from all our tax laws and bylaws loopholes that got them filthy rich in the first place. Is Romney gonna renounce his citizenship to save his fortune or is he finally disclosing all his tax records? He already has swiss bank and cayman island bank accounts set up and it looks like he is preparing to save himself and jump ship if need be. Why would anyone give this guy their vote when his love for money and ambition is greater than his love for country? The man is oblivious to what the regular working person goes through to support their family. Romney's pledge for his first day in office IF elected is to repeal OBAMNEY CARE and shut down Planned Parenthood and screw the poor people who really need it. What Romney is gonna replace this programs with is anybodies guess cause he doesn't have a clue himself. Romney, Carl Rove and Koch Bros. are counting on all the gullible voters that belief in that elusive trickle down economics they keep promising everyone but we all know IT DOESN'T WORK. Romney and the rest of the rich community are working hard to keep from paying a fair share of taxes even if they have to renounce their USA citizenship. Can you trust this guys with your country?

    You do realize that the ultra rich all over the World tends to put money into offshore accounts and renounce citizenship of the Nation they belong to. You also do realize that about a decade ago the Swiss changed their banking rules at least for the United States so that US citizens now pay taxes on the interest that they earn in these accounts.

    Once again some one is just repeating the liberal mantra against Romney and your "facts" are full of holes.

    Finally, so people who PAY Federal income tax aren't paying their fair share while the 48% who pay no Federal income tax and the 30% who actually get money back for working are? This makes no sense at all.

    Do you have even the slightest clue about the money that is backing Obama?????? The same rich guys Obama bawls about are the same ones supporting him, do you have a clue who George Soros is?? I'm amazed at all you rich hating people that you don't seem to have a problem with Soros. And yes, I am going to vote for Romney and Obama is out of here in Nov.

  • I just quietly laugh at them. France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Greece and a long list of countries have just hiked the taxes on rich people by over 30%. So, they don't realize how good they have it here nor do they realize they are ruining the good thing they had by getting too greedy.

    Now that's funny. Imagine that, a Demoncrat president that is not a citizen & a Republican president that renounced his citizenship. So far as I can tell, the Swiss bank & the British bank in the Caymans is legal & has been for a long time. With 95% of the nation's cities in financial trouble & 92% of them laying off, I can't give you Libbys much credit for success. So O care gets shut down. We're no worse off than we are now. O care only shifts Medicare & other forms of medical care onto the shoulder of every working person. I'm retired, so I don't have to pay. You'll pay that for me. Yes, I'm voting Republican.

    just plain old jealousy for someone who has been very successful.

    unfortunately, as the us economy continues to fade away, and people are no longer looking for jobs are not counted in the unemployment numbers, and they continue to drop for this reason, not because there are jobs being created here we will eventually reach 0% unemployment. won't obama be proud and he will be saying finally a stimulus bill worked.

    i also notice you did not include wasserman-schultz in your comments.

    and you did not include pelosi. LOL

    You can't judge the 1% on a dozen people.

  • I don't care what Romney does with his own money.

    I care more about what he plans to do with my tax money should he become president.

    Its major Democrat donors who are renouncing their citizenship to save tax money, should tell you something
