“You, my friend, are the one who is completely clueless. I’d love to hear you give more examples of Buffett’s efforts to take on the system and change it. I’d love to hear Buffett’s thoughts on outsourcing, tax cuts and credits for corporations shifting the base of their operations out of the U.S., eliminating the electoral college, and a variety of other issues that would truly indicate where his interests lie. Don’t over-simplify the matter, TB.”
PP, do you know how to use Google? I typed in “Buffet + outsourcing” and found the following on the first page of results:
“Mr. Buffett argued vociferously against the trend in global outsourcing. While he believes that outsourcing should play a small role in our trade policy, he said that the numbers have gotten to a point where it is starting to make a difference, particularly for those less-skilled laborers most vulnerable to falling through the social safety net. Mr. Buffet argued that outsourcing constitutes a wholesale transfer of wealth to other countries, and that as America increases its reliance on outsourcing it is ” selling off a piece of the farm”. He also demonstrated concern about the national deficit, arguing that it had grown to a level so that it was tantamount to “a 5% tax on productivity in this country”. Furthermore, while the national deficit is growing, he is concerned that the Bush Administration is not using the national deficit in the way it should be used: to generate economic stimulus. While Mr. Buffet recognizes the necessity of rationalizing health care, he spoke in favor of widespread medical coverage, arguing that “some base level should be assured to everyone in society.” Students were very receptive to Mr. Buffett’s message of social concern, noting that it’s rare to hear such a preeminent capitalist speak out regarding equality and justice.”
Please, before you make an even bigger fool of yourself, verify your inane statements with a simple Google search first. If you are going to be an Internet troll, you at least need to learn how to do simple Google searches so that people don’t reject everything you say without even reading it.
I leave you with this quote: “It is better to be thought a fool than to make a post on the Internet that removes all doubt.”
