Isn't Herman Cain loaded already? Doubt he would be counting on that salary to pay the bills

That's a great idea! Would save our country literally THOUSANDS of dollars!

Both Barack and Michelle were rich before...Obama didn't 'pay his fair share' and even took the $1M for the "peace Prize" last I heard...or did he donate it to a worthy cause?

fuk cain

he is for a national sales tax in addition to all the other bs taxes and also would implement a carbon tax.

It would save us millions every year.

fuk cain he is for a national sales tax in addition to all the other bs taxes and also would implement a carbon tax.

Yes there would be a national sales tax but he deletes federal income taxes, social security taxes, medicare taxes, and lowers corporate taxes. Haven't heard him say anything about a carbon tax.

low flat tax, low corporate tax rate and a national sales tax which is like saying 'pay as you go' all makes sense to me. 999

The guy is a lunatic. Its pretty sad some people can't see that. He is a bankers buttboy, he comes from the Federal Reserve and has connections to Goldman Sachs. Not to mention, once again, he is a fukkin lunatic.

President Obama made good on his promise to give his $1.4 million Nobel Prize money to charity, releasing the names on Thursday of the organizations that will benefit.
“These organizations do extraordinary work in the United States and abroad helping students, veterans and countless others in need,” Mr. Obama said in a statement. “I’m proud to support their work.”
Applying the motto that charity begins at home, Mr. Obama put Fisher House, an organization that provides housing for the families of American veterans, at the top of the list, with $250,000. Fisher House was followed by the Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund, the project his two immediate predecessors are running to raise money for relief and reconstruction efforts in Haiti ($200,000).
White House officials said that the money would go directly from the Nobel Committee to the recipient charities. It is to be released in the next few days. Mr. Obama promised that he would give his prize money to charity last fall, when the Nobel Committee stunned the world with its choice of Mr. Obama for the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize less than nine months into his presidency.
Republicans quickly contended that Mr. Obama won more for his star power and oratorical skills than for his actual achievements, and even some Democrats privately questioned whether he deserved it. Mr. Obama, himself, maintained that he did “not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who have been honored by this prize.”
Other charities receiving some of Mr. Obama’s prize money include the Posse Foundation, which tries to help nontraditional high school students get into college, The United Negro College Fund, the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, the Appalachian Leadership and Education Foundation, the American Indian College Fund, AfriCare and the Central Asia Institute, which promotes girls’ education in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

I'm sure all the low income, retired people and unemployed are going to love paying 20% more for everything while the rich get out of paying for their fair share of the taxes. Nothing more than a shill for the bankers and white shoe boys.
