Alba: See, its biased mainstream media like that which gets me so angry. Notice how they only mentioned the last two years? Well, thats because in 2001 and 2002, Arianna's average income was $175,000. Nice number, right? Well, her outgoing expenses were over 400k each year, financing research for her new book, (and work expenses are deductable for one and all). She made three million this year from the sale of that aforementioned book, and will pay appropriate taxes. And she made over a million in 2000, and likewise paid a large sum in taxes. She's a writer, its a cyclical business.

She paid considerably more in property taxes and employer taxes than the few hundred noted by the two-party-system-financed press (which quoted only fed tax, 2002 Fiscal Year)

Oh, and her house was a divorce settlement. She married well, you can envy someone for that, but not fault them for it.

hehe, i get riled.. sorry :)
