Why didn't Obama voluntarily send in an extra $100K to the IRS? After all, paying taxes is patriotic. Just ask Joe Biden.

Obama and Congress are free to send in extra money to the IRS every year. As is Tim Geithner, you know, our Treasury Secretary that evaded taxes for 5 years. I promise you no one outside of their families will try to stop them from sending in those donation checks.Originally Posted by T150

The "law of the land" very clearly allows for any citizen to write a check to the US Treasury, above and beyond their required tax paymentOriginally Posted by T150

Isn't Obama garnering future votes by using empty rhetoric about raising taxes on the wealthy?Originally Posted by res.ume
Again, Obama can certainly send in the 30% equivalent tax rate in the form of a check to the IRS. He is free to donate that money. So is Buffett. Buffett can send in millions every year if he so desires. Pelosi can. Chuck Schumer can. Joe Biden can. Do any of them send in that money? No.
If they are supposed to lead, they can start leading by example. Voluntarily send in money so they are paying 30% federal tax. Until they do that, aware yourself that it's empty rhetoric. Part of a political playbook to get populist votes.America needs fewer laws, not more prisons. – James Bovard

Lulz at people thinking that is all he made. I'd love to see just how much he pocketed and didn't report.

Has it passed yet? No. If he's advocating for it, why does he need it to force him to pay the extra money? Why not just pay it on your own?Originally Posted by res.ume

This isn't true. Obama paid more than his secretary. I believe Obamas % was 23.5 and his secretary was either 11 or 15 %. Will bring the article.
Yes. I am saying. Obama lied.

Don't hold your breath. Also, where is the bill to raise the taxes?Originally Posted by res.ume
Why does Obama or any member of Congress need the law to force them to pay the higher taxes they claim they are for? Why not do so voluntarily? And again, where is the bill to be voted on to raise taxes on people making $1 million? That won't be voted on for at least another year. Don't you just love how the budget and people's livelihoods are hijacked by (all) presidential elections? Way to put duty ahead of personal gain, entire federal government.America needs fewer laws, not more prisons. – James Bovard

So you guys agree that Obama should be paying less than his secretary, since he's a job creator? Since you're against the buffet rule, right?

He's a "job creator"...? Serious?Originally Posted by res.ume
Oh... And the discussion has nothing to do with "job creation" as a criteria for tax rates anyway. This is about the hypocritical rich folks who demand higher taxes, but are unwillingly to actually pay those taxes themselves... Until forced to.
