Now for the serious answer....

If those numbers are accurate, then I applaud the Obama's for paying more than they had to. Paying 1.8 on 5.5 is roughly 32.7%. A good accountant could have gotten their effective rate down to 18-20%. Obviously they are both intelligent enough to calculate their own taxes or at the least get someone to take advantage of the deductions and loopholes available to them. But they chose not to. He essentially put his money where his mouth is and paid more. That is a rarity among those who are wealthy and think we should keep raising taxes on the wealthy.

YurTroll posts to get the attention he craves. Then he accuses others of being "trolls" if they disagree with his BS.

YurTroll uses the term "troll" as an ad hominem strategy to discredit opposing positions by attacking the proponent.
