Is this the same Home Depot guy who said publicly that socialized UhbamaCare was a bad thing?
Since then, my approval of Home De(s)pot went up sharply. I always preferred Lowe’s (though frankly they’re not much different), but between HD’s comments and Lowe’s blatant pathetic accomodation of Spanish language, I think now I’ll be tending toward the Despot.

Home Depot co-founder Marcus says Buffet's support to tax rich will slow hiring Now, there's a shocker. Taking money away from those who create jobs will result in fewer jobs being created! Who wouldn've thunk!
Liberals have a mental block that doesn't allow them to understand 1) the rich never pay higher taxes - they either shelter their money; pass on the increased costs to consumers; or eliminate jobs (or all three), and 2) all tax increases have ever done is given more money to government to spend, and they spend every dime and more.

Warren Buffet wants to keep the elite club of the super rich small. A big tax on 'up and comers' will do the trick... Buffet doesn't give a fig about Americans being employed or not. He's a puffed up liberal elite jerk.
Bernie Marcus, on the other hand understand middle class Americans. Good for him.

Lowes blatant pathetic accomodation of Spanish language, It seems to me that a private company like Lowe's is making a good business decision by trying to accomodate all its potential customers.
When I visited Switzerland, I noticed that most everything was printed in English, German, and Italian. They own guns too.

A little bird told me that Buffet actually “sold” his name to provide a little cover for Obama’s tax scam.
What was the “price” paid to Buffet?
Obama had to promise to direct the IRS to “drop” its billion-dollar tax-deficiency lawsuit against Buffett.
Hey, it’s the “Chicago way”...

Buffet's support of Keynesian economics shows how out of touch with economic reality he is. Buffet had better give that secretary a raise because it is obvious he is sitting out on the deck chair letting; his minions run the shop. It is my impression that the only thing he worries about now is does his Margarita have the correct salt ring and does he have enough Viagra for the weekend.

Actually, in Switzerland it’s the law on the languages ( you need to add in French) because the country is actually three countries in one. Depending on where you are ( or more correctly which of the three countries that border Switzerland are nearest to your location) the district is obliged to post in that language as well as English.

We need a 100% billionaire tax NOW. Leave everyone else alone.

Do you believe that they do this because they have citizens that only speak German, Italian or English?Indeed, I was informed that that was the case at the time. Those were the primary languages of the swiss people in that area.

I don’t think Buffett creates any jobs...he’s just an investor, isn’t he? I think his secretary is his only employee therefore tax the crap out of him and leave job creators alone.

Not French?
The Swiss have been German/Italian/French for centuries. This is about invasion and indoctrination.

No, but they’ve obviously bought in to the idea. We’re not talking Texas or CA here, either.
