One nit. <br /><br />" highly principled GOP Senators, who made those highly principled speeches two years ago" - <br /><br />Actually, Scalia died in 2016, so, four years ago, before the 2016 election. <br /><br />And I don't point this out to be critical. Believe me, at some level, time has been standing still for all of us.

It should have been so in the first place. Tax transparency is what keeps con men from attaining high office. Trump was the first presidential nominee in recent history to refuse to provide his taxes so look what we got. A tax cheat.<br /><br />As far as I'm concerned, anyone running for national office should be required to open his financial records. The public has a right to know if the person they may be voting for is a crook or just another lousy businessman. <br /><br />You want the office? Open your books. Otherwise, piss off.<br /><br />Oh, and contrary to the partisan BS in the linked article, Trump took no such principled stand against providing his taxes. He promised them and promise them, always later, and as soon as he won, THEN decided to refuse. Just as a lifetime liar would do.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-52493676246034748372020-09-30T10:12:43.771-04:002020-09-30T10:12:43.771-04:00So Much for Income Tax Privacy https://www.fff.org...So Much for Income Tax Privacy https://www.fff.org/2020/09/29/so-much-for-income-tax-privacy/Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14658730069022837576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-63114526722291421922020-09-29T20:11:36.800-04:002020-09-29T20:11:36.800-04:00I'm going to watch the debate.
