Economics lesson for you, when his company gets the **** taxed out of it the company will have less money, less money means less to divide up to investors. That's fine in Buffett's case because that piece of trash deserves to reap what he sows personally and anyone who can entertain that piece of **** also deserves the loss. Now, Buffett goes grand scale and says everyone in his bracket should pay more in taxes, those taxes come from profits which means the companies have less, less is the opposite of more which means that the people who have money in other companies will suffer from a smaller pie(less money in their coffers more in the government's remember). Since less will never be more than more and Buffett is an advocate of less, he fails in his fiduciary duty.
Now, legal or not, which is NOT what anyone has said, Buffett has come out for MORE taxes while he and his company try to pay LESS. If you can't see a problem I can't help you.
Well, you should help yourself first. Why use so many emotional appeals? Are you angry at Buffet or do you not have actual arguement to make? Buffet talked about capital gain tax. And if he wants to raise the corporate income tax, again he's entitled to his opinion, and his company would not be put at a disadvantage since the rule will apply to all companies.
Legality very much matter, if you want to argue that Buffet should go against the law to pay taxes his company is disputing, then you are not arguing like a sane person.
