Have to avoid paying taxes anyway possible.
Good deeds should not be dependent on the whims of the rich. Tax them.
Ironically, Buffet has long been a proponent of taxing the rich.

Publicly. Wonder what he thinks behind close doors? also must not be a fan of taxing the rich if he is using a loophole to avoid estate taxes.
I believe he’s the type of guy that’s compartmentalized. He full heartedly believes that the rich need to be taxed more and that he’ll work tirelessly to prevent it because it’s bad for business
Financially, it makes sense to do. But morally and ethnically? Debatable. I don’t think it’s hypocritical to both exploit the law as written and advocate for its change, if it doesn’t exactly harm anyone.
Like if that “legal murder zone” was a real thing, it would absolutely be bad to exploit that. But tax avoidance is pretty far down my list of all the bad things you can do.
I think it’s worse than it feels. Like, I still like Jimmy Carr, but how many schools have cut meal programs because of a lack of funding? It’s just that money is fungible and through taxes it gets split up so much that you can’t really follow it, so I don’t think we realize the harm that’s done when people don’t pay their taxes.
At first I read this as “the next generation of buffets.” I was getting excited that someone had figured out how to make a buffet that isn’t a food safety nightmare, then I read the rest of the sentence and was disappointed…
I am the destroyed of dreams.
Easy mistake to make. No, this is actually about the Margaritaville guy
Why don’t you just fund efforts to have ranked choice voting across the country.
Rather make sure my family is extremely wealthy and powerful.
Our local Buffett keeps the Sheriff’s office well stocked in souped up off-road vehicles. Among other accouterments.
