Warren Buffett Speaks

. . . to the obscenely hot Becky Quick

about the economy and its handling by the new powers that be in DC.

. . . if you're in a war, and we
really are on an economic war, there's a obligation to the majority to behave in
ways that don't go around inflaming the minority. If on December 8th when--maybe
it's December 7th, when Roosevelt convened Congress to have a vote on the war,
he didn't say, `I'm throwing in about 10 of my pet projects,' and you didn't
have congress people putting on 8,000 earmarks onto the declaration of war in
1941.

This is from an Obama supporter, by the way. Folks, wake up. Your money, that stuff you earn that you need for things and living, well, it's being flushed - to quote the great social philosopher Travis Bickle - right down the fucking toilet.
