ORIGINAL: kalikshama In general, as Obama's income went up, so did his percentage of charitable giving, but 2010 and 2011 are anomalously large.
Yes, very generally, as his income went up, so did his %, but in this table, he's always been above $200k. Now, for a guy that pisses and moans about "the rich" not paying enough in taxes, and his having "hundreds of thousands of dollars" that he doesn't need, his charitable giving sucks. Even in the last 2 years. How can someone bitch about his tax bracket not paying enough in taxes, and then not give more away, or pay more himself, or not take his legal deductions?
