Warren Buffet sure talks a good game

Pretty sad isn't it.

I can't believe....with all the de-regulation and tax breaks for the wealthy dating back to the first Bush....and our country's economy has gotten worse and worse and worse...that the Republaderps KEEP saying.....MORE CUTS....MORE DEREGULATION....FEWER TAXES ON RICH

At what point do you just wake up and say....god damn....they're wrong!
 
I take it you've never had to actually deal with BOA. They're the scummiest company in the US. The executives should all be dragged out into the street and shot.
 
his article said something about really rich people making more through investment gains than through 'income', and the tax rates are different for those. so he calculated that he pays a lower % of his total income in taxes than anyone else in his office or some shit
 
Anyway, my biggest issue is how inefficient our government is. I am all for investing in our infrastructure and have some safety nets, but goddamn it could be done a lot more efficiently. And this war bullshit has to stop. With all that being said, we should probably raise the capital gains tax rate. I would also like to see more income tax brackets for the upper class, and a reduced burden on the middle class.
 
depenRAB on the day, my company does some cool shit for us but id rather have a pay raise than bbqs every month, but thats just me, i have been there 5 years and i get a discount with geico since he owns it so its ok
 
Watch the whole thing on PBS, its all pretty sad.
Recap was Treasury forced 9 banks including BOA to take money from them if they wanted it or not. Then they forced BOA to go through with the Merrill merger even though they knew they woudl be fucked. Stock Holders shit and Ken Lewis was out the door, but really his hanRAB were ties by the Treasury. And they are still fucked for it all.
And this was under Obama. Democrats and republicans were all singing the same tune, we have to bailout the banks, they are all owned by Wall St, no difference between them in that case.
