40 hours air time but hundreds of maintenance hours - if not thousands(40x119=4760 manhours). Those 7 bombers will be in the garage for weeks.

Remember that bit about Warren Buffet's secretary paying a higher tax rate than he does? The reason is because they make that much more money.

No. It’s because that was a lie. What Buffet actually said was his secretary paid a higher tax rate than he did. She paid income taxes… he paid capital gains taxes which is, and should be, at a lower rate than regular income. She did not pay more in taxes than the old hustler.

BTW. If the old phony Buffet thinks he should be paying more in taxes, there is absolutely nothing stopping him from doing so. The Federal government will gladly accept his contributions and proceed to waste it like they always do.

No. It’s because Buffets income was in the form of Capital Gains which are and should be, taxed at a lower rate than regular income.

Not buying “expensive goods”. What you mean is cheap but not slave wage cheap. Fixed it for you.

Let’s see. The satellites get shot down. How accurate will their bombs be?

That's a decent number that need to be taken out to make GPS non-functional. And even without GPS, they have inertia guidance and other systems, they're still decently accurate. CEP of maybe 100 ft instead of 40 ft.

It's because Buffet, personally, did NOT make more money than his secretary. He paid himself an even $100,000 as the CEO, and for her to hit that 30% rate, means she was getting paid a pretty decent chunk of change. Also, he likely had a decent amount of income from capital gains, which is taxed much lower.

You ignored the citation.

He hides his income in his foundation expenses, like others who own them.

Right on queue,

Not that the MIC/neocon/warpig group is wrong about evil human nature, but they sure are profiting (mightily) from it. Who knew ?
