Request President Obama to pay personal income taxes based on Buffet Rule

Created by R.W. on April 26, 2012

President Obama's 2011 federal income tax showed $845,000.00 in earnings. The president has, so far, paid $165,000.00 to the IRS. This is only 19% of earnings. We hereby request that the president pay an additional $92,950.00 in order to cover the shortfall defined by the Buffet Rule. Paying the full 30% in income taxes, we believe, will demonstrate his commitment to the Buffet Rule. This leadership will also encourage all other wealthy citizens, who agree with the Buffet Rule concept, to voluntarily pay 30% income tax.
