Factoid for the Weekend

Over the past three years, the evil corporation that is Exxon-Mobil has paid on average $27,000,000,000 (thats billion) in corporate taxes a year. Its funny how we always hear about how much money they make but never about how much they pay in taxes. This number also represents the amount that the bottom 50% of wage earners pay in taxes combined. So Exxon-Mobil pays more taxes than the 65,000,000 American wage earners that make up the bottom 50%.
