Is Mitt Romney a financial genius or a slick manipulative fraud ??
Nobody knows where his money is or how much he actually has in his many accounts.
But he makes money off other people's money, not his own.
He even was able to get someone (the US government?) to give him money to manage the Winter Olympics in Utah. How much did he make off that arrangement?
There are reports that he has his money in the Cayman Islands, as well as a Swiss account. Where does he keep his $100 million dollar IRA fund? And how did he get an IRA of that size legally? Also, it is reported that he has money in other countries also, like Ireland and the Netherlands.
But what makes him a financial genius? Is it because he doesn't pay taxes on most of this wealth? He moves his money around so that it escapes scrutiny and taxes. Some conservatives find that an admirable trait, I suppose?
But isn't he defrauding the government of taxes that we need to keep our society running properly? What gives him the right to skip out on paying taxes? Is it legal the way he manipulates our tax code? Is he a genius or a fraud? I have my own opinion on the matter.
