It is a small investment. Is the issue significant?

I'm almost sure that I have seen this before. What does the document purport to signify? That Kerry had an offshore investment vehicle in order to evade taxes?

There's much more to this story that that little investment if the Kerrys are only paying 12.8% in taxes.

He did not sign this paper before he signed it so everything is OK.

Like I said in a thread earlier about Kerry paying less tax % than most of us, the rich can hire accountants to find loopholes for them not to pay taxes. Until the government closes the loopholes and eliminates tax shelters, the rich will continue hiding their money and cheating the IRS.

Let's see: Liveshot out-sourced his funds but wants to ban the out-sourcing of personal and corporate funds as a tax shelter dodge by others. TYPICAL LIBERAL. Rules are for the Little People, don't you know? ;-)

It sure is when Kerry insists that $84 income makes one a timber tycoon.
