Demon Eyes released 2 years of tax returns and here's a taste of what's in them:
Ryan’s tax returns, released through Mitt Romney’s campaign, show that he paid $64,764 in taxes on $323,416 of adjusted gross income in 2011. He and his wife paid $34,233 in taxes on $215,417 of adjusted gross income in 2010.Interesting, to say the least.
Just over half of the couple’s income came through Ryan’s congressional salary, according to the returns, with the other amounts coming from a variety of investments, including rental real estate, partnerships, and trusts.
The Ryans donated $12,991 to charity in 2011, and $2,600 to charity in 2010. Those contributions went to such groups as the Boy Scouts of America, Junior Achievement, and Women and Children’s Horizons, according to the campaign.
Although Ryan’s income is larger than what the average person makes, his tax returns are fairly straightforward and would be familiar to most Americans, unlike Romney’s returns, which illustrate the complexities of the US tax system.

On some level, I feel like this guy is pretty straight forward. Even with his let's get rid of medicare thing, I think on some level he probably was pretty surprised at the backlash he received from it. He thinks he's doing good. He seems extremely earnest. And I don't think he sees a disconnect between what he does and his love of Rage Against the Machine.
Now, having said that, these things make him much more dangerous than Mitts could hope to be.
He follow Ayn Rand who hated the poor.
the RNC will be copying the Olympics ,kinda, by having cheer leaders and the like to open up the convention. I wonder why they picked Tampa, Florida?
If you work the percentages he paid 20% in 2011, 15% in 2010 still far below we common people who pay about 28%.
