This has been on my mind long before Trump became President and actively and directly profited from taking office. There is a long history of tax fraud and knowledge of tax information would help inform workers of their value. I can;t really think of good arguments against this, but I'm sure some on here will try. So please, make your case.
Why shouldn't your tax information be public? By keeping it private we are hiding a lot of crime and allowing a lot of bad actors room to maneuver. We are preventing people form knowing what their relative value is from region to region. We are allowing corporations the ability to buy our politicians. Its possible our president is a patsy fro foreign agents due to exposure of loans. So what are the positive aspects of keeping tax records private?
