I never understood why that hypocrite jerk Buffet supported Obama when he is the opposite of what Obama's ideology is.

I never realized how much resentment the rabid right holds for Warren Buffet.

He's a job creator.

You should kiss his ring.

Warren Buffett Helping Burger King Cut Its Tax Bill

Buffett ( a long-time advisor to and supporter of Obama), putting up some of the cash for Burger King's $11 billion deal to move it across the border. Headquarters will be in Toronto, instead of BK's current home base of Miami, helping it avoid paying some unknown amount in U.S. taxes. Buffet will gain.

Buffet is also benefiting from his rail cars. Instead of the pipeline that will employ people Buffet and his investors benefit moving oil in buckets instead of pipes.

Just a small little ole company from Canada whose market cap is similar to Burger Kings. It is a merger of equals.

Tim Horton's dominates the Canadian coffee and donut scene. If you have a franchise, it is a license to print money.

KPMG's 2014 study shows Canada the most competitive, being No 1. in the world wide.

Their headline reads:

Canada remains most competitive business tax environment worldwide


And that is the major reason the Canadian economy attracts job creating investment. And companies like Burger King.
