He paid more.. but he made a whole lot more. How is it not fair for everyone to be taxed equally? Just because somoene makes more doesn't mean they should pay less.
I do agree with you on the consumption tax and it is something I strongly favor. However, to not see the current system is tilted in favor of the ultra rich is simply to be ignorant. To call making that system a little more balanced so the lower income person isn't burdened in taxes because he only makes $35K a year "Socialism" is simply absurd.
To call Buffet a twit... one of the most successful investors in the world.. hell I wish I could be half the "twit" he is.
