Also his company isn't a public company, Berkshire Hathaway wouldn't ever pay a dividend, and the situation would never happen, I don't know how that article is supposed to magically discredit anything I say... the point still stands, the rich get a tax break under ANY plan for a reason, whether or not Warren Buffett thinks it is right that his secretary has to pay a larger percent of her paycheck away.


Perhaps giving $310m to a private business owner who is a cutthroat and destroys companies just so he can clean up when they sell assets off for bankruptcy isn't a best way to stimulate the economy, but giving less than 1% of the population a thousand dollar break on taxes wouldn't do any better.
Me, cannot read?
What the hell are you talking about!?

I just explained to you that bigger tax cut for the rich is not the only way to go to build a strong economy...

Isnt what you meant by "Stop bitching about the rich getting a tax break."!??

Since nobody here ever questionned the fact that even the rich should get tax breaks....

Maybe you didnt read the thread with your glasses on!?


As for the Buffett exemple, it is just to show you that LARGE tax cut for the rich is not automatically good for the economy...
Im not saying that Buffett hold the thruth but that just prove my point that even the TOP experts cannot agree on what good for the economy!
