Income & Tax (Click)

I have come to know some numebrs regarding the income and tax of the top offices in the US.

President G. Bush and his wife, Laura, paid $221,635 in federal taxes on an adjusted gross income of $923,807 for the year 2007, including $400,000 as president salary $150,000 advance received by his wife for the children's book she co-authored with her daughter, Jenna.

Vice President D. Cheney and his wife, Lynne, had an adjusted gross income of $3.04 million in 2007. They owed $602,651 in federal taxes on that income; paid $466,165 through withholdings and estimated tax payments, and will pay the remaining $136,486 upon filing their tax return.

I am eager to knwo what the numbers are around the world! I mean how the other presidents get their money, how much they get and how much they pay as tax (if they ever do).

Well, I did not but Tariq did. However, I do not mind it since the "man" is speaking the truth!, and the truth is good regardless of when, where and why it is said and who said it.
