This is concerning. A shareholder at a publicly held company was interrupted and arrested during the three minutes he had been given during an annual shareholders meeting to speak in favor of a proposal because his remarks displeased CEO Warren Buffett.

Buffet is a tool of the dark one.

Since the electoral process has been bastardized, the elite need not answer to us plebes.

Buffet’s lawyers are likely writing a settlement check for the inevitable lawsuit...which Buffet can easily afford.

That action, incited by Warren Buffet, is only going to bring more attention and closer examination of the “forbidden” proposal. Now, I’m sure quite a few shareholders want to find out what all the fuss was about? I would, that is, if I happened to have an extra $497K Dollars in my back pocket to buy one measly share.

Criminal trespass, no less. And the local police went along with the charade.

Unfortunately, Buffett is a Democrat, he said he started backing them because he was in support of their proposals for civil rights in the 1960’s.

Buffett’s father was a Republican congressman from Nebraska and a John Birch Society member.......an anti communist.

The big capitalists have never been ideological about making money, unlike libertarian economic ideologues who “work in think tanks” & have a “fairy tale” view of how the economic world works.
