Ha! Now 0bama can retaliate by permitting the Keystone pipeline, taking biz away from Buffett’s BNSF.

Hey, it’s just a bus throw-under contest in the end.

Using their logic, wouldn’t buying municipal bonds be considered unpatriotic?

How is capitalism unpatriotic? Buffett is just doing what is right for his business and, in doing so, shining a bright light on the errors of our tax code.

His patriotism has nothing to do with it. He always has the option of writing a check to the IRS if he feels the need.

Putting money before country is unpatriotic. Take a walk through Arlington to see what others have been willing to pay.

Yup but it sure is great when it comes back to bite them and even better when republicans use it against them.

There is nothing patriotic about paying confiscatory taxes.

The Dims always talk about ‘The race to the bottom when conservatives talk about cutting corporate tax rates to keep and attract corporate investment and they are right.

Corporations will seek the most favorable tax rates available. It is their job to keep as much capital as possible for the company and their investors. Nothing is going to change that.

Bk is not even an American Comany. Why on earth should they feel any “loyalty” to America?

Any tax system that relies on “patriotism” is guaranteed to give an advantage to the unpatriotic.

Hey, any free trade capitalist will tell you that shareholder value trumps national patriotism every time. Get the gettin’ while the gettin’s good, and then dump the whole overvaluated mess on some other poor chump; that's how it works. There's plenty of people on both sides of the aisle who would agree with that statement, and will use any influence that they can buy to make it happen.

In reality, the sun is setting on the US economy. As more and more assets leave our shores, we have less and less influence financially in the world. Business leaders see this, recognize it, and will do what they do to stay afloat in a world economy, because even the lowly wharf rat knows when to
jump off of a sinking ship.

Sounds like this is a very patriotic move — on behalf of all the Americans who own BK shares.

Buffett advocates higher taxes because he’s investing overseas.

If Buffett put his patriotism ahead of his personal and financial wealth, he would not have supported Obama in any way, shape or form.
