So, since that pesky US Consitution got in the way of forcing churches to to pay for eugenics, the Emperor will simply force private insurance companies to do his bidding instead,

After listening to liberals "argue their case" for several days now, I've come to the conclusion that they are simpl...

The irony is that the "environment stewardship" that this idiot Obama claims is his reason for shutting down the most efficient means for getting oil to market, will actually suffer because the oil will go to China, which is a much riskier route to market and, once there, will be used in much mor...

@lucashoal Good point - the US Constitution protects the people from the government ... supposedly. Although it's getting harder and harder to tell. But, it also establishes a mechanism that allows amendments, which has been used to eliminate injustices (Btw - unjust and derivatives are words....

This restores my faith in Buffet! This is Buffet confessing! Here's what he's saying:

"My bizarre comments on increased taxes were part of a deal with that idiot BO: I would make those absurd tax comments, BO would shut down the Keystone Pipeline deal, and my rail holdings get to transport the...

@BErectus Did I say "Tulsa" again?!? Omaha! Omaha!

@flyinthesky082 Let ME guess - you NEVER watch FOX NEWS or any other news outlet that may be in opposition to the Democrats.

The Chinese will probably buy the oil from Canada, ship it over the border, and sell it back to us for double the price. And the Obama moron will still be singing. Newt is right - BO is just flat out stupid. There's no other word for it.

Please Mr. President, resign immediately and take up a new singing career.

@idneilkell Could well be. It would not surprise me. But, nothing will happen to this church. There are so many double standards in America that it's hard to think of the US as a nation ruled by law anymore. In fact, there are many places in America where the only law is the law of the jungle.

@sole21000 All those reasons you cite may well be true. But, it's not a result of more money. In fact, they do better for LESS money! How? By being incentivised by the free market. Competition holds them accountable. There is no competition in public school monopolies with union locked-in ...

Bust the fat-cat union bosses and bust the NLRB, too!

@ieclipse2 Agreed - the US system of taxation is a ridiculous mess and has been for some time now. It needs to be fixed. But Buffet doesn't help with sound bites that advocate doubling down on the existing failed system.

@123BlueKnight Show me the check, pinhead. In the meantime, keep your worthless pie hole SHUT!!!

@jxsilicon9 I think you're confusing lenders with investment banks that bought notes, bundled them, and sold them to GSEs. The lenders were small community and regional banks, many of which no longer exist.

The banks did exactly what you would expect - they bought risk and sold it at a premium...
