[quote:Bluebird:MV8yMDQwNDA0XzM0Mjk3NzA2XzY1NUE2NjYy] Guess it's lost on some that Romney supporters are not for the excessive taxation practices of our government. It's just more money for the Democrats to use to buy themselves votes. [/quote]
Original Message
Investigative reporters at a respected Dutch newspaper, De Volkskrant, published a story that Mitt Romney avoided $100 million in dividend taxes using a complex route that ran through The Netherlands. The mechanism used an arcane clause in the tax treaties that determine which country can tax which type of income when a construction, in this case a private equity fund, runs through multiple countries. Some of the data came from legal documents filed with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. The reporters repeatedly asked Romney to comment on the story but he refused. A translation of the original dutch language article:
