My beef with Romney's finances

I think I can make this one short and sweet.

Here's what we already know about Romney's finances:
  1. He says he doesn't know anything about his investments in offshore accounts because they are managed by a blind trust.
  2. In 2010, he made $21.7 million - that's about $60,000/day at 7 days/week.
  3. On those earnings, he paid 15% in taxes (most people making $60,000/year would pay about 25%)
So for knowing nothing - which means DOING nothing - he makes more in a day than most of us do in a year and pays a lower tax rate than Warren Buffett's secretary. 

It just isn't right!!!
