If nothing else, people would be able to see how the wealthy and influential have stacked the tax deck in their favor. Romney's returns would be a real eye opener, something that could change the direction of the debate about taxes going forward. People would be shocked to see the deductions and financial tricks the wealthy employ to pay lower rates than working people pay.
Romney and Ryan are the ones that want to eliminate many of the writeoffs the wealthy currently are legally allowed to use.

47% of the country pays no income tax. So tell us again how "the wealthy" are paying lower rates than them.
Yeah....going to release a "summary" It is so kind of Romney to try and dangle a carrot. Also he gave his charitable contributions to the Mormon Church....might as well be the Scientology Church.
This is what kills me...this 47% pays no income tax. Most lower-to lower middle income dont pay taxes, not because they are leaches or lazy, or DONT WORK..it is because they get the child tax credit and the earned income credit, which gets phased out after you reach a certain income. THOSE credits were put in place by republicans in order to get their tax cuts for the wealthy passed. I just wish we had a flat tax on all income. I certainly have a problem with 'earned income' being taxed a higher rate than 'dividend income', thats a bunch of $&*^.
Obama and especially Biden are cheapskates compared to Romney.
Giving to the cult that he belongs to is not a "real" charity.
He is still only paying 14% of his income, which is less than many of the 53% that pay taxes in this country.

He's a good guy it's a shame America has turned into a psuedo socialist hell hole led by a two bit charlatan but it is what it is guys like Mitt Romney are scorned these days. Being married to the same woman for 40 years, no known personal scandals, a pillar of his community, dependable father and generous with money and time is just not in.
You have to be a minority preferably gay or a straight scoundrel with babies fathered all over the place all preaching how you're the man of the people. Meanwhile in reality you went to the best schools and when given a choice chose to live far away from the poor. Your wife wears the latest fashions and your kids go to the best schools all while giving less than 1% to charity but hey you can say you're a real man of the people and the lemmings eat it up because you have a nice smile and your media buddies just love you.
I hope Mitt can pull it off but maybe this country doesn't deserve him and deserves its fate under Obama.

Romney's not a President....
