I am certainly all in favor of people -- regardless of their wealth -- donating to charity.

That said, I think that Warren Buffet has been very much in favor of programs that increase the taxes of people far less wealth than he is.

I wonder why, then, he wants to donate his money (and take a charitable deduction) his wealth to charity.

It seems to me that he should consider GIVING his money to the Federal Government. Let's see him willingly give his money to the Federal Government so that the Government can determine how his money should be spent.

Warren buffet owns insurance companies that sell death tax insurance.

If there is no death tax then there is no need for his “product”

He makes money by being conservative with money. While people panic they flee to his Birshire Hathaway shares for “security.” Just look at what he did with his class B shares when he did a massive split.

Wouldn’t we all as Conservatives rather than give them money to the government, give that money to charitable organizations instead?
