Waren Buffet. Why do they have to hate him?

I like him and all those super rich who feel that they need to pay their fair share of taxes? I mean, how selfish can you get for not wanting to help this economy. And, I'm not just talking about those who hire people but mainly those who are trust fund babies (adults) living a life style that doesn't include paying taxes.

  • It is not "the super rich" people's job to support the whole country. EVERYONE needs to pay their "fair share." EVERYONE.

  • Warren Buffet doesn't even pay his fair share. His companies have been avoiding paying taxes and have been to court many times. He is a moron and at any time can mail what his company owes and then some to the IRS. We could take every penny from the wealthy and our Congress would simply find a new way to spend it. So many forget it isn't the Govs job to provide as much as they do. We need to cut so many departments and shut many down. I paid in 39 percent of our income in federal, state, business and other taxes last year. I think I pay more than my fair share. I would like to see you give up nearly 40 cents of every dollar you make then tell me that is fair. Rich people in Congress who spend like a teenage girl with her parents credit card are the problem.

  • Because they don't want to pay the same tax rate as everyone else. They've been getting these brakes for 11 years on the premise that they create jobs, well that social experiment has apparently failed, so they need to pay the same as every one that makes money.
