"In the last seven-eight years what has happened is that the super-rich have gotten a huge break," said Buffett, one of the world's richest people.

In the last seven-eight years, Warren, what has happened is that people who are very bright and are willing to work maniacally hard have been freed to indulge their creativity and earn money. This is called "capitalism," Warren. Are you familiar with the concept, Warren? If it bothers you so much, give your money back. Just distribute it to the people. That's what socialism dictates, Warren. But as for the rest of us who are not multi-billionaires, we would like to keep the money we earned and if possible pass it on to our children. You can go ahead and impoverish your children if you want but leave us out of it.

Well said. This message needs to be packaged to sell. Everyone wants to leave something to their kids.
