Buffett has perfected the “country cousin” routine. He knows that playing the role of the simple Nebraskan and paying lip-service to the principles of the Government Party and their many adherents is the best PR he can have.
At his level, he can’t afford to be on the wrong side of Gov’t.
as far as his "charity" money, I say its hardly charity....
you and I would LOVE to be able to send our money to our favorite causes instead of having to pay taxes...
this is what Buffoon is doing....he's giving his money to his concerns and his likes...he's choosing where to send his taxes instead of the govt doing whatever with it...
its not illegal....but lets just all understand that he's getting a lot out of the deal....he gets to act all superior and elitist while he dodges taxes..
