Warren Buffett can’t see the forest for the trees, Save Jerseyans.
He was on CNBC today and his interviewer asked about Governor Christie’s “shut up and write a check” comment.
Buffett responded by not responding. He gave a rambling, disjointed “explanation” of top marginal tax rates and wealthy American income trends over the past decade. His basic point? That rich folks are doing well. And I’m sure he is! It’s not hard to make money when you’ve already got it. At no time during the interview, however, does Buffett ever address federal spending having reached record levels.
Buffett is just another liberal immune from market forces who confuses spending problems with revenue problems; he also shares Tim Geithner love of telling others to pay while avoiding paying your own:
