For me it is all about our elected leader. An FBI agent doesn't need to have their credit report made public because they likely have very little influence over businesses and political issues.

Say, hypothetically, the President was hundreds of millions in debt to a bank that was known to be owned and run by a rival country's government. Then one day the President does something that helps that country greatly. Shouldn't we know about that kind of stuff?

If a person chooses to run for public office, part of the process should be releasing tax returns. Our system is so corrupt we need to do something to start fixing it. Maybe knowing where people's money is coming from will be a start.
