Re: so what percentage do you give?

Percentage-wise, he actually came up to about our level. And while I appreciate your implication that we receive more than $2,656,902, our income is more in the range of 1 to 2 per cent of that lofty figure

Which cuts to the heart of the matter: We gave what we did even with our income being a tiny fraction of theirs, and with my wife being out of work much of the year. And since the Obamas received over $2.5 million, is it not incumbent on them to be more generous with that wealth?

I realize that what they do with it is their choice, but their lack of generosity is absolutely perverse given his intent on punitively taxing those who do give substantially of their wealth.

so what percentage do you give?
