You seem a bit confused. Taxes have to do with the type of account, yes, but have nothing to do with how you invest the funds.
The OP asked why would he use a Roth IRA as a vehicle instead of just investing in mutual funds outside of a Roth. That's what I answered. I have no clue where you got the idea that I was saying that the specific investment itself would have an impact on the tax treatment.

I know an ira is a vehicle and mutual funds are investments.
So with a Roth you pay taxes on the money before you invest it and never again on any gains whereas with a mutual fund you pay taxes on the money before you invest is AND the cap gains?
