umm ok lolNo, I just don't give a damn. I really don't understand why you cant grasp that.I get that is has been tradition for a few decades, my question was whyI have never understood why politicians release their tax returns. Whats the point?
It's customary, and has been for a long time. Why should it stop with Trump? Wouldn't you demand to see Hillary's taxes? Of course you would.
It's part of the vetting process for us to see who we're voting for. Trump stated that he would release his taxes, he also demanded that Romney release his taxes. Don't you want to know if he's a liar? (I'm guessing you don't want to know)
Second, the leak of the Panama Papers, the deluge of documents detailing the offshore accounts of various foreign leaders and their relatives, underscored the value of disclosing financial information, and the wisdom of a norm in which elected officials release their tax filings as a prudent matter of course — not in the midst of a political firestorm.
Every presidential candidate should release full tax returns
People seem to focus on their rate. However, idk why people think politicians are going to treat their taxes different from the rest of America.
And I don't give a crap about cankles taxes.
You don't care about her taxes because she's not refusing to release them.
Roberton Williams, the Sol Price fellow at the nonpartisan Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, told us that there are three things we could learn from Trump’s tax returns: details about where he gets his income and how much it is; “how he’s structuring his income for tax purposes”; and what kind of deductions he takes, including charitable giving. If Trump had overseas income or foreign bank accounts, for instance, that information would be on his tax return.
Trump’s Tax Returns
Me personally, think it should be mandatory for them to release 10 yrs of tax returns
You must care some, or you wouldn't be asking me to explain it to you.
