Tax Havens. Offshore accounts. Carried Interest. Mitt Romney has used every trick in the book. Romney admits that over the last two years he's paid less than 15% in taxes on $43 million in income. Makes you wonder if some years he paid any taxes at all.

We don't know because Romney has released just one full year of his tax returns. And won't release anything before 2010.

Mitt Romney's not the solution. He's the problem.

The more everyone finds out about Mitt Romney's finances, the more questions they have. Perhaps that's why he's hiding as much as he thinks he can get away with. Yesterday, The Boston Globe reported that Romney was still running Bain Capital two years after he claims he left the firm, directly contradicting his campaign's denial that he was involved in deals that led to layoffs, bankruptcies, and American jobs getting shipped overseas. Either Romney filed false SEC statements or he's making false statements to the American people now.

Mitt Romney doesn't deny he invested in companies that outsourced jobs to Mexico and China. Doesn't deny that he made a fortune when it happened. Romney only says there's "no evidence" that he was in charge at that point. But newly disclosed documents show Romney was: sole stockholder, CEO, and Chairman, when jobs were shipped overseas. Here's the evidence, Mr. Romney. Your turn to explain.

Vice President Joe Biden's Remarks at the 2012 National Council of La Raza Annual Conference in Nevada.

• Are you in?

In his remarks to The National Council of La Raza today, Vice President Joe Biden addressed Mitt Romney's refusal to release additional tax returns that could shed light on his offshore accounts and investments in foreign tax havens.

"And this is a man who says President Barack Obama is out of touch. Out of touch with the needs of the American people. This coming from a man who until recently had a Swiss bank account and millions of dollars invested in the Grand Cayman Islands beyond security -- beyond scrutiny. And President Obama is out of touch?

Mitt Romney is defying calls to release more than one year's worth of tax returns. The Romney campaign response? "Just take our word for it." So why is Mitt Romney hiding the rest of his tax returns? How long can Romney keep information on his investments in overseas tax havens secret? And why did he do it in the first place? Time will tell.

Running for Governor, Mitt Romney campaigned as a job creator. "I know how jobs are created."

But as a corporate raider he shipped jobs to China and Mexico.

As Governor, he did the same thing. Outsourcing state jobs to India. Now, he's making the exact same pitch. "I know why jobs come and why they go."

Outsourcing jobs. Romney economics: It didn't work then and it won't work now.

Mitt Romney in 2002: "I'm going to reduce taxes." As Governor, Mitt Romney did cut taxes...on millionaires like himself. But he raised taxes and fees on everyone else: $1.5 billion. Over a thousand fee hikes: On health care. On school bus rides. On milk. On driver's licenses. On nursing homes. On lead poisoning prevention. On meat and poultry inspection. On fishermen and gun owners.

Mitt Romney's bus tour is coming to Newark, Ohio. In this video, Ohio residents share why Romney's plans and visions are wrong for the middle-class and why they support President Obama's vision to move forward and create an economy built to last.
