"Governor Romney, unlike every US politician including your father, you have only released one portion of one year's tax returns. The question in two parts is; why should Americans vote for a candidate that refuses to show this info, and what exactly are you hiding?"

A question for candidate Mitt Romney at the Town Hall Presidential Debate on October 16, 2012

In 2009 14,000 wealthy Americans took advantage of the tax amnesty program to pay 5 billion in back taxes that were hidden by a USB tax evasion scheme. Mr. Romney, did you participate in the 2009 federal tax amnesty program?
