I'm always puzzled as to why people care about these amounts. Why is 104m in A's bank + this statue in B's home better than 104m in B's bank + this statue in A's home?
Makes no difference whatsoever to me.

the funny thing is when I first saw a picture of it in the paper, I thought it was supposed to be an artistic representation of Obama. I was thinking some dignitary visiting the White House had offered this as a gesture of good will, with Obama promising to put it in the Oval Office (at least until said dignitary and all the reporters left the room.)
