Largest tax avoidance schemes in history?

If the perps were notorious criminals like Tommy Chong, Martha Stewart, Bradley Manning or Don Siegelman, maybe the GW Bush Justice Department

WOULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING!

Geeziz, if Mitt pulled stuff like this off as a mere "little person" or a mere "you people", he's be serving three consecutive life sentences for tax evasion alone!

If I had $145 million in my IRA I would probably get hit by a government drone on my way to the supermarket. That one stinks.

(hope I got the historical context right - I dont know much about the SOB scandals, although the name has a nice ring to it)

...this is another zinger to let Romney know, without actually coming out and saying so, that the Obama campaign knows exactly what he is hiding and they are putting it out to the public, drip by drip by drip. If he doesn't release his tax records, they will come out with the rest.

That will keep Romney and his staff busy as cats covering up the evidence. I can't imagine he won't release more records.

Drip, drip, drip...
