They're unpatriotic tax dodging lowlifes.

From the Release Statement:

"Since 2007, we have paid $43,885,310 in federal taxes and made $14,959,450 in charitable contributions. We’ve also paid $13,625,777 in state and local income taxes"

These taxes are reflected in The State and Local Taxes Entry on Schedule A (Itemized Deductions) on each Tax Return and there is a further breakdown on a Statement 3 attached thereto

Anyone with a lick is sense knows that Hillary's returns are "transparent" only in that narrow, legal sense of the word that actually means "not".

Why? Becaus we all know she has been paid millions over the years for speeches, because she has even admitted so, yet this money doesn't appear on her returns because of the shadowy world of shell copanies, LLCs and Caritable orgizatons that allow her to get "paid" without having too show any personal "income".

Hers are the kind of returns that only a Tax attorney can read and just further prove that she cannot be trusted to tell the whole truth about anything without a lawyer and an accountant by her side.

What we KNOW from Bernie's Senate disclosures alone is much more transparent than the fantasy tax world of Hillary, LLC.

I want to know what, if any promises were made or implied for the large amounts of money she received.
