Warren Buffett says even though he and other top earners are paying higher taxes this year, he thinks he's still paying a lower rate than his secretary.

Well, Warren, there is nothing keeping you from not taking deductions, firing your attorneys, and just donating more money to the government.
Buffet’s pictures never show that he has his knee pads on. These scumbags will do ANYTHING to get away with paying the big taxes....
Only MORONS pay higher taxes. If Trump is ashamed about paying lower taxes, then he should NOT be. It is a sign that you can game the system, which he has pretty open about.
Do NOT feed the evil. Figure out a way to pay as little tax as possible. Heck, Apple and Facebook don’t pay taxes. And they are valued the highest corporation ever.
These billionaire limousine liberals and cocktail party revolutionaries make me sick. They should give life to their beliefs and give away those billions now. NOW! Not through some kind of tax advantage foundation. Buffet, Gates, Bezos and Zuckerturd could get a hundred billion dollars and give it away now. Build a hospital you bastards. There’s something pathetic about their “trickle down philanthropy”.
what a super-jerk!
he is welcome to pay more tax anytime he wants to!!!!!
he needs to shut his mouth and open his pocketbook.....
Buffett is a hypocrite first class. He keeps saying things like, “People like me should pay more taxes”, but then there’s that “wink wink”. He has a huge group of tax attorneys to make sure he hides as much as possible. FUWB. Well, he’s going to step off pretty soon and leave it all behind.
Obonzo gave that thing to a lot of goofballs. He was intentionally trying to lower the prestige that it carried with it. He did.
No reporter ever asked him that question...release his returns since he wants to make a huge political issue of it so we could see why he was supposedly paying so little. Likely because he wasn’t even being paid a salary so therefore was not subject to the payroll and income taxes, therefore making his argument false.
No, he is not. Last I saw his rate is 52%. If he is paying less he is dodging taxes.
So, write a check to the Treasury, ya putz.
He says this every four years.
Warren Buffett
How much does his ‘executive secretary’ make? 500K? And how many shares does she exercise each year?
How much does Uncle Warren make, or even need? Maybe it all goes to berkshire hashaway.
It’s not black and white.
From one useless medal winner to another. I hope silicon valley discovers the cure for dying one day after Buffet dies and the same day Soros dies.
He said the same thing years ago... He has a pretty dumb secretary if she is still putting up with this bs.
Obama gives those away by the wheelbarrow load
Buffet’s a racist/sexist/chauvenist for calling his employee a secretary.
Buffet should have paid his secretary in stocks. That way after 30 years she would be getting dividend income and pay the same rate as Uncle Buffet.
I’m so sick of hearing from that smug little self-righteous corporatist crap weasel.
Obama killing the Keystone Pipeline ensured Buffet wouldn’t lose oil tanker traffic on his BNSF Railroad. That is corporatism, and it plowed billions into Buffet’s company.
