Just Write A Check!
Warren Buffett, billionaire who was miserable about his secretary having to pay taxes at a higher percentage than he, talks a lot about rich people like him paying more taxes. NJ Gov. Chris Christie got tired of it and told him to just “shut up and write Obama a check.” So far, I don’t think Buffett has done so. In fact, he’s way behind on paying the taxes he DOES owe. His comment about his secretary is a lie too, as are the comments of most liberals. His secretary (who is salaried) pays at INCOME TAX rates while Buffett, most of whose “earnings” are capital gains, pays taxes at a far lower rate. He doesn’t tell you that if HE was on a salary, HE would pay taxes at the SAME PERCENTAGE as does his secretary and if she earned money as capital gains, she would pay for that at the same rate as he does. This is the kind of fact-twisting liberals are known for. (The Blaze)
