claiming Buffett is of the same class as most of the top one percent is as specious as saying someone who makes 10 Million a year has the same interests as someone making 100K a year even though the 100K and the 10M guy are much closer than most of us in the top one percent are to Buffett. Buffett's demands for more taxation is classwarfare against the moderately wealthy
anyone who thinks those of us making 375K-a few million a year have the same interests as a guy worth several billion and who makes 50-100 Million a year is really living in fantasy land. If you are making one million a year in investment income Obama wants to triple your taxes from around 150K a year to close to 450K a year. someone making a million who has his federal taxes go up 300K is going to have to make major lifestyle changes.
SOmeone making 50-100 Million a year-not so much
remember-the lefties claim that those uber billionaires really are spending only a fraction of what they make
