The taxes you report are not US raxes.

Actually, I pay infinitely higher US taxes on my US earnings than does Exxon-Mobil. For the year 2009, Exxon-Mobil posted earnings of $45.2 Billion, but paid no US income taxes. While I'm heartbroken that Exxon-Mobil finds it so expensive to do business in foreign sh*tholes, requiring US taxpayers to continue to subsidize that activity is bad policy.

No US taxes? I don't believe that. You will have to show me.

Since about 75% of EOM revenue comes from overseas, I would expect most of their taxes to be paid the same.
