    I suggest Buffy invest $Bs in the private health insurance companies that will take over the failed ACA HI exchanges portfolios… and Medicare by turning it into purely private insurance.

    But, Buffy will likely try to use much of it to try to buy a ‘Blue Wave’ this Fall.

      Wonder where he banks. Never could understand why a rich capitalist wanted to support a Progressive Socialist who wanted to raise taxes, govern poorly and was basically a thug.

        Until you understand the difference between Supply Side Jesus and the actual Jesus Christ, you’ll never understand Warren Buffet, Agent.

          This is such an ignorant comment. The economy does not work like Jesus.

          The moral high ground you think you have here, you don’t.

          The whole supply side Jesus joke is completely ignorant and ignores reality.

            Yes, bob. His running joke makes me chuckle every time he uses it.

            Have you watched the completely ignorant source from where it comes and the cartoon ish style video that has been made to go with it?

            It’s complete lunacy.

            They play everything out basically as if Jesus was a supply side economy (God, which to them this comparison makes God the economy, the economy is not all giving or knowing).

            And show what Jesus would have done if he followed supply side economics, and really it is almost like it keeps jabbing at capitalism which is the real issue with it and why I find it astounding that Planet thinks he has a moral high ground and great joke of it. It’s basically a push toward socialism and has immense hatred for capitalism.

            There are such risks with this presentation it is astounding. Teach the children that the economy should just provide, let’s to go socialism, etc.

            I cannot tell you how many ignorant young socialist Catholics there are that put out this absolute nonsense due to precisely the supply side Jesus joke and they think they are better than everyone when they do it. Jesus is not an economy. He did things which are not possible. We can’t emulate God’s infinite supply economically because the economy is limited.

            More funny:

            Just recently he talked about how us good little Rush followers parrot Rush (Agent specifically).

            Supply Side Jesus is basically parroting a hip and popular cartoon. The guy talks a lot about how others are so this or that, and he constantly violates the same rule.

            The ego on Planet is huge. He has managed to ignore me for years, he literally blocks out the posts. Most people who ignore people will decide to comment every now and again, he’s so arrogant, he has blocked out every word I have said, for somewhere around 7 years.

            And this is how he got his echo chamber going.

        “… but it only serves the employees of those companies…”

        Examine the rate levels and profits it reports. Think about the implications.

    His underpaid Geico employees won’t see any of it.

      If they feel they are underpaid, there’s never been a better time to look for another job, with unemployment at 3.9%. Geico pays what they need to in order to get the talent they want – no more – and people take those jobs. Everyone’s time is worth what they’re able to get for it.

        Does GEICO use e-verify on its job applicants? If not, that would explain much.

          Does GEICO drug test before hiring employees?

    Pay as little taxes as legally allow to and then bitch about the rich paying more taxes.

      Jack, Uncle Warren did have a few loopholes under the Obama Administration and a small army of tax lawyers to make sure he didn’t have to pay. Thank you Obama for helping your buddy out. Let’s have another fundraiser.

        If you dig into the math the most recent tax changes helped him out more than the Obama administrations tax structure and loopholes they had. look at the numbers by the experts.

          Speaking of math: remember when Uncle Warren lectured us about how his “secretary” paid higher taxes than he did? What a guy!

          Here is the math: Uncle Warren took a salary of about $100,000. Because it was his company, he could choose to take what he wanted. But by taking a very small salary, his taxes were largely much lower capital gains taxes.

          But Uncle Liberal, Mr. Buffett: what if you chose to pay yourself $1,000,000. in salary? Wouldn’t the higher taxes go to all that good government welfare you vote for? Or do you want everyone else to pay their “fair share” while you skate by on a ridiculously low salary. (Can you spell Uncle Hypocrite?)

          And oh, Mr. Liberal: why have you donated all your wealth at death to private charities instead of giving some to the government you want the rest of us to carry? Don’t you walk the walk, Mr. Democrat?

          Answer from Warren: “Of course not! I’m a liberal phony like all the rest.”

            Apparently, Capt BOT cannot spell hypocrite. But he can copy & paste anything anyone writes, as if it means something (it doesn’t!).
