The way I feel about Buffett is that he is a parasite who feeds on that which has been produced by bright and hardworking people. Has he ever invented anything? Has he come up with any new hypothesis or innovative way of thinking? Is he a craftsman, artist, or producer of anything? Can he diagnose or treat you if you are sick? Etc. etc.

I don't want to hear how ‘entrepreneurial’ he was, or how well he did in business school. I'm entirely unimpressed. He's just another financial parasite who had a rich father and the right connections. If he was really bright he wouldn't be an Obama supporter.

Is he (Buffett) a craftsman, artist, or producer of anything?

A producer of wealth, as many who have benefited from his financial acumen will attest. Buffett has remained modest all these many years, still living in the unassuming home he purchased years ago. Although I don't agree with his politics, he is a self made man who worked hard and diligently to achieve his success. Nothing was given to him, he earned it.
