You are absolutely correct. Those soldiers are tax exempt while they are in the Iraqi AOR.

What really burns me about this is that the headline is completely misleading. Buffet does not pay less taxes, he pays a lower PERCENTAGE tax. The headline was probably written to intentionally obfuscate that fact.

What's more, why do Buffett and Gates employ accountants whose job is to reduce their tax burden if they actually feel this way? If you want to pay more, go right ahead!

So you think that flat tax would be very unjust? Would you like the poll tax instead?
