>> to his take-home pay

I didn’t review his tax returns, but I’m guessing he had no take-home pay per se — he received dividends subject to 15% tax previously taxed at the 35% corp tax. “Take-home pay” is expensed by the corp and not subject to the 35% corp tax.

Romney’s investment revenue is essentially subject to a 45% tax.

One more thing to consider:

Six Reasons Why the Capital Gains Tax Should Be Abolished

This is a YouTube video from a guy at the Cato Institute. It's only about 6 minutes. I would have preferred a written article, but this is really informative.
