$160,417.26

I just did my taxes today. I paid $160,417.26 to the US government in 2006. In addition, I paid $8,586.88 in miscellaneous Colorado state taxes. That's enough to turn someone republican!

If you are managing your taxes properly, there is a lot of profit on the other side of that tax bill.

Out of context that number is virtually meaningless. But, remember that we have the lowest rate of taxation in the First World, by a third, at least.
