Why is it a problem?
Latest political soap opera is swirling around Trump's tax returns.
Step back and ask the bigger question: Why should anyone's tax forms be private?
Repooflicans should be PROUD to show that they are perfect traitors who pay exactly ZERO TAX ZERO TAX ZERO TAX.
Non-Repoofs should be PROUD to show that they are doing their part to support the country.
Everyone should be PROUD.
So where's the problem? Best guess: Showing the forms would reveal trade secrets of the evasion industry, would let competing rich fuckheads copy your special crimes.

back in 2012. Since then the amounts have naturally varied, but the effective tax is about the same.
