This type of thing really bothers me:
The Obamas earned $5.5 million last year. Out of all of that money they donated only 5.9%. If President Obama thinks people who earn over $250,000 are “rich” and should be taxed more to pay for social programs, then why does he and his wife need over $5 million? If they think other people can live on $250,000, and still be considered rich, then why don’t they donate $5 million of their income and live on the remaining $500,000. They’d still make twice as much as those who they consider rich.
Then there’s Joe Biden and his wife Jill. They earned $333,000 but only gave %1.44 of that to charity. Did you get that? Only 1.44%!!! That is pathetic. Where is his sense of patriotism? Why isn’t he jumping in, being part of the deal and helping America out of the rut? During the campaign he commented they he and Obama wanted “to take money and put it back in the pocket of middle-class people”. How many of you middle-class people out there would love to have some of Obama’s or Biden’s money in your pocket?
This is the height of hypocrisy. It is disgusting and it is embarrassing that they call themselves Christians. It is typical of the liberals that are running this country. They want to raise the taxes on the “rich” so that they can spread the wealth around. They just not willing to spread their own around.
We're supposed to be the most generous country in the world and this is what our president donates?
