See here's the thing for me: two wrongs don't make a right. You look at all of the bad things that happened during the collapse surrounding sub-prime mortgages and the one person I remember going to prison during that time: Martha Stewart. And it was not over sub primes. I'm sure she made mistakes but it seems the big dogs here can slide by so often. Just amazeballs. I hope every list is leaked. I want to put our lawmakers feet to the fire on this. Of course they are probably bought and paid for by some of these people.

Iceland sent other kahunas to prison over the banking crisis/financial meltdown there.

I agree that I would like to see who is sheltering money and not paying taxes that the rest of us must pay. There is no indication that this is a very US-centric list. So far it seems very international; actually not clear who from the US is involved (I'm assuming you're an American from the content of your post). But I will assume that since there is so much data over such an extended period of time that this will hit many, many countries including us in the US. We'll see...

I appreciate that in Iceland it's a no-brainer - good for them.
