Tax Returns of the Rich and Famous
No, it's not mine...or G.M.'s. But, if you are curious about Barack Obama's 2006 income tax return, you can read about it HERE and download a pdf file of it at THIS SITE. He made more than I did, but I'm just part of America's working families. I hope your refund was as nice as his, but I don't understand why he doesn't just donate his overpayment to some Democratic giveaway program.

At least - If we had the VAT tax we could all stop inventing tax information! ANOTHER PROBLEM - - NO ONE should have to create a legal document that will be seen by the entire world and be forced to share their home address.

If this one interests people, I'll link a site where the Presidents' tax returns are displayed from Roosevelt to Bush. Roosevelt was so confused by the form (and this was back then) that he just attached a check to a half-filled out form and told them to figure it for him and send him whatever refund he should get.

It would appear that if you really were interested in what Obama does with his money, you might be interested in the fact that he did, in fact, give away more than his refund. Check his return, he gave $60,307 to recognized charities. that's about $20,000 more than his refund.
I'll never vote for Obama, but fair is fair. How much did you give charity?
