I’m not running you down. OK? Buffet’s comments were inaccurate and misleading. But I have no personal animus against anyone. Buffet is in the business of buying and selling equity. When he or his corporation makes a capitol gain, he pays capitol gains tax. The corporations whose stock he buys and sells pay income tax at the corporate rate, which is lower than the personal rate, because the employees, both great and small, pay personal income tax working for this corporation, and the stockholders pay personal income tax on the dividends they receive, if any.
I’m not “defending” a corporation, I’m just stating facts, which are stubborn things, as am I. If you are so certain that there are these corporations who supposedly don’t pay any tax, give me their names. Then we can both argue about facts, rather than our respective intentions and motivations.
Gas prices shot up 10-15 cents here today.
We feel your pain. Hubby's got at least one of those. I tell him to not bother because a liberal wouldn't know the truth if it hit them in the head.
