It's even more crazy when you look at Romney's retirement account. He can then take these "worthless" profit shares and sell them into his 401K, where they grow like mushrooms tax free and circumvent contribution limits.
Worse, Romney then cut a deal where he gets his profit share for 10 years after employment...even though he's not working? These aren't priced options that any top exec would get...they're special.
I'm still curious to understand if he's really used Cayman firms so his IRA can invest back in Bain and avoid the tax hit.
Bottom line...there's a lot of tax talking points out there...but we're talking about someone who doesn't even reflect the 1%.
This is like fingers on one hand kind of stuff.

You'll have to complain to the IRS,or better yet have them change the rules.
