i fully support going aggressively after those who hide assets and lie or cheat their way out of paying their fair share of taxes.

[UndertheHalo]

This whole thing is equal parts massive scandal and possibly the least surpising scandal possible.

I thought we were meeting in this thread to do a doob

You know, it's actually funny.

Bernie Sanders actually warned about Panama about 5 years ago when trade agreements were being discussed.

 

 

Just throwing that out there.

[Schildog]

well it's been going on for 40 years.

So Bern was only 35 years late?  

 

To be fair, he was only 67 thirty-five years ago.

The two have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Just good judgement, that's all.

"So far, no big-name Americans have been outed."

 

Seems it is still completely unrelated.

[Make Angels Great Again]

You conveniently left out the next sentence.

 

"But news outlets and auditors have so far only scratched the surface of the massive document leak."

I wonder how many socialists are evading taxes

[Make Angels Great Again]

All of us, of course.

just like the libertarians.

Now you are treading on McCarthy ground. Accusations without facts.

Other than the Prime Minister of Iceland and Vladimir Putin?

All of them.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Are you kidding me? The MOST suspicious part of this whole thing is the lack of US citizens involved. When one of the journalists involved with the leak was asked about this the response was "just wait for what's coming next."

 

Accusations...you have to be seriously naive to think that Americans aren't evading taxes through a tax haven like Panama, if it's not this group it's someone else.

 

There's a reason Americans haven't been outed yet, it's just a matter of waiting to find out what it is.

[Amazing Larry]

Was Ayn Rand on the list? There will be hell to pay if that bitch collected social security AND didn't pay her taxes.

[Jay]

All of us, of course.

 

all the Bernie supporters?

[Make Angels Great Again]

Yup, every single one of us socialist bernie supporters stash our money in tax havens.

Well you certainly don't use it to help the needy

Socialism is about creating needy to save them with socialist programs to make them dependent while still being needy.
