Just to keep everyone in perspective. Warren Buffett was one of the causes of several market crashes and especially the 2008 crash. As the owner of Moody’s he engineered the fake valuations of mortgages. Moody’s literally caused the crash along with the GSEs (Freddie and Fannie) and S&P plus Fitch. Plus Warren was the single largest owner of large banks. So you can call the 2008 financial crises a Berkshire lead crises. He was in every important part of it. And had it not been for his ownership of the Washington Post, you would have been attacking him first.

Other scandals that he was involved in include Wells Fargo and Salomon Brothers. Warren speaks with a forked tongue. That grandfather image allows him to evade all blame while having his fingerprints all over the crime scenes.

You feel Buffet caused the 08 crash? Do you think the federal government had any role when they forced banks to give mortgages to people based on their skin color not their FICO score?
