Report: Billionaire Donor Sheldon Adelson Would Save $2 Billion in Taxes Under Romney 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
A new report shows the billionaire casino mogul and top Republican donor
Sheldon Adelson stands to reap a massive tax windfall should Mitt Romney
win the presidential election. According to the Center for American
Progress, Romney's policies would save Adelson more than $2 billion in
taxes. The savings would come through a combination of Romney's
proposals to cut the rate for top earners, avoid or exempt foreign
profits, and maintain low rates on dividends and capital gains.
