#1 Anyone care to argue that privacy is a good thing.

#2 Yes, this money belongs to the people who earned it.
People do not belong to governments , that's the north korea/ USA model.

#4 I'll bite.

Privacy in private affairs is just part of being a citizen. Without it, you aren't.

Openness in public affairs is part of living in a healthy democracy. Without it, you aren't.

The outrage here is justifiably centered on corruption of public officials. I would also add that the NSA, FBI, Interpol and all the rest had nothing to do with this leak.

#5 "Yes, this money belongs to the people who earned it." Mossack-Fonseca has been handling accounts from more than 200 "countries." There is enough here -- including the data on Brazil and Argentina -- to keep journalists/investigators busy for years. Hell, M-F activity in Nevada should be worth at least a year. Finally, the next shoe to drop after Nevada will be the "trust" cover-ups in South Dakota and Wyoming.

You want the real source? Start with German intelligence service.

#7 By the way, the father of Jurgen Mossack -- the big bug in this operation -- was Waffen SS.

#9 In the past these leaks have always wound up somewhere on the net. I'm starting to think this one won't. Imagine if just anyone knew how this sort of 'tax management' was done...

Maybe. If they weren't so busy with the Tea Party. And I'm sure if they find Bill and Hillary on the list they'll let it slide.
