I see you backed off your "10,000 richest Americans" silliness.You are forgetting GE and other US corporations.
"US corporations, who are (according to to the Supreme Court) also citizens of this country, paid just $300Bn in taxes last year on $6 TRILLION in income (5%). Thats right, if US corporations simply paid the same amount of tax as Mr. Buffett that would, by itself, be enough to wipe out our deficit.
Good boy.
