He doesn’t give a care where everybody else is as long as he gets to ride on his golden pony.

Great, great America. Which needs his help getting rid of its babies.

Guess it is great when you can make billions off of people, huh.These rich people are so out of tune with what’s happening in the streets and in the homes of this land. They live in a isolated, insulated bubble, free from the cares and worries and troubles of everyday people. Thus they think everything is grand, wonderful, carefree. It is not. This Country is as bad right now as I’ve seen it in my 51yrs of life here. Our economy sucks, the moral climate is horrendous, jobs are out there if you want to work part time or get paid peanuts, manufacturing is scarce, they are now importing workers to take our jobs instead of simply outsourcing our jobs overseas,healthcare is taking a bigger chunk of our going nowhere wages thanks Obammycare. We are a real mess!

Trump has apparently not forgotten his humbler roots. He may be out of touch with some things but he is not an utter elitist snot like Buffet.

The parable about gaining the whole world and losing your soul well applies to Warren Buffett.

Warren’s life is better. But let’s not get close to the Great Unwashed.

That torture with the the guy floating in a boat with maggots eating him alive for about 10 days seems about right for this degenerate scumbag, and Buffet too.

ALL BETS ARE OFF

THE PLUTOCRACY IS ON PARADE IN DC AND IS RUBBING THE AMERICAN TAXPAYERS FACE IN THEIR TRIUMPH.

Beware Idus Martiae!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Warren Buffet donated his entire $62 billion fortune to the retirement of the $12 trillion debt being tossed off on our children and grandchildren, he could take care of a whopping 0.5% of the principle. I doubt he’s got enough personal wealth to take care of on year’s interest.

The guy may know how to make money for himself, but he is a jackass and a moron if he thinks that our nations present course will have the result that “Our kids are going to live so much better than we do now.”

Has Warren gotten into the retail marijuana trade?

Buffet is a freak liar.

...

One of the biggest on the planet, and I’ve seen the local news station which he owns fabricate a glowing portrait of his past.

All I know is that when I drive down any street in any city I see stores and entire shopping malls shuttered.

Other idiots will just pop up in their places.

Waiting for idiots to die is a surefire recipe for disaster.

The theory that one becomes wiser with age is a case-by-case situation.
At a certain age many need to sit down and get ready to meet eternity.
I’m well on my way to being one of those, but at least I recognize it.
