The Strange Case of the Missing $7 Million

Posted on 08:09 by amla
Mitt Romney released his 2011 taxes. The story has been he had to artificially reduces his deductions to keep his effective tax rate from falling below 10%.

More interesting to me is that his reported income fell by one-third between January (when he filed his estimated return) and today. That's a big chunk of change. The linked article suspects Romney secreted the millions in trust accounts in an effort to make Mitt look less like disgusting fat cat.

Of course, it's possible the same grifters who are bleeding Romney's campaign funds go their hands on his personal income.
