I'd be more carefull with the name calling if I were you (glass houses and all). You didn't get the Buffett quote right, either; it's "...that he pays a lower % of his income than his secretary." Is that evidence of retardation, too?

Easy to confirm; Google: "The top reason that Warren Buffett pays less tax as a percent than his secretary is because he is being taxed primarily on capital gains income as an investor versus his secretary, who is taxed on a salary or earned income as an employee."
