The campaign in a nutshell free stuff vs free enterprise.

The problem though for Romney is the 47% he's referring to comprises a lot people who are Romney supporters, as well as a lot of good and decent people. But, perhaps you consider them all moochers?

Who are the 47%?

Who are the 47%? The Tax Policy Center's Donald Marron said they fall into three main groups:

The working poor. The earned income tax credit and the child credit can help families making $50,000 or more pay no taxes or get money back. About 60% of those not paying income taxes do contribute to payroll taxes -- which means they must have some source of earned income.

The elderly. An increased standard deduction for those over 65, and an exemption on part of Social Security earnings, means that many older Americans pay no income taxes -- even though most of them paid into the system through decades of paying taxes.

The low-income. A family of four claiming only the standard deduction and personal exemptions pays no federal income tax on its first $27,000 of income.

...

Gallup's daily tracking poll shows that a third of those with incomes less than $24,000 support Romney, and about half of retirement-age voters do.

*******

And look at this. Idaho is one of the moocher states. Must be all those birther and survivalist pinheads.

So do you reject customers with accounts outside of America?

None of my clients have offshore bank accounts.

Is it a problem for someone running for President of the United States to have offshoring personal bank accounts only to avoid taxes?

Yes.

We have banks in the United States.

It's not like buying a BMW - - the "technology" for a Caymans or Swiss bank is not any more advanced.

It is all about avoiding taxes and stashing. It is why almost all third world dictators do it.

How do you know what your clients do? Why should you care?

I am fine with anyone legally reducing their taxes. I presume you take every deduction you can and put your clients in tax shelters, if that is best for them financially correct?

Or do you as a rich guy who is invited to attends dem fundraisers voluntarily pay you r fair share and not take all the deductions you are entitled to , maybe set an example for w Buffett.
