Billionaire business magnate T. Boone Pickens said Wednesday that he has no idea what President Barack Obama is talking about when he speaks of the need for the wealthy to pay their “fair share” of taxes.

“The president is confusing me. Every time he’s on TV, he says that the rich should pay their fair share. … Well, I don’t know what fair share is. That’s what’s bothering me. I always want to be fair,” said Pickens on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “Some place in here, I feel like I’m letting my country down. I need to know what they want.”
