"After buying everything I want, I spend everything I have".

Not much of a defense.

According to this NYT article, Mr Henderson has saved roughly $54,707 dollars since 2004 in the temporary tax cut. In 2011, he'll pay back an extra $7,484 of that.

That's not to say that a $7,500 payment is chicken feed - even in his bracket. But, overall, that "temporary tax cut" did him an awful lot of good.
