In 2011 ExxonMobil made about $73 billion and paid about $31 billion in tax. That is a tax rate of greater than 40%; assumedly more than Warren Buffett's secretary. The much heralded GM made about $9 billion. General Motors not only did not pay any taxes on the income, they received a benefit of $110 million. This as the hypocrites in office continually play the class warfare card as they campaign on the perceived benevolence and success at GM while implying that the rich and companies like ExxonMobil are not paying their fair share.
Government Motors needs to pay their FAIR SHARE....
