Buffett didn't exactly lie about his taxes, but he didn't tell the truth about what he does and he spoke in support of Obama who led people to believe that by raising taxes on income, you'll "get the rich".
Deceitfulness (Buffett and Democrats) and financial ignorance (their supporters) is a dangerous combination.
he did lie about he paying less than his secretary
And when the rich say they support raising taxes on the rich, people so naive to believe them, wow. Of course they're not in support, they just get around it by keeping their "taxable income" low. I just showed one ex ... W. Buffett. They can't get around a tax increase with Trumps plan. They own the property(s) and can reduce their federal taxes only up to $10k.
Funny that during the Obama era they called paying higher taxes patriotic (now that they can't get around it, they're screaming).

Get the rich.... You got that interpretation from Breitbart, didn't you
Its in line with what you said earlier when you said "I thought libs and Dems hated "the rich". Later you went on to suggest a person who lives in a 300 sq ft apartment in NYC is "rich".
They are just pointing to the obvious disparity in the tax system between the middle class and the wealthy, ask Warren Buffett. This tax bill (not tax reform) will only enhance that disparity.
The special interest tax treatment for hedge fund managers is a blatant disregard for a fair tax system, it should have been a no-brainer.
How does any of that mean the middle class or anyone else shouldn't pay their fair share?
This is one of the most often repeated lies spread by the right-wing. We don't hate the rich, we only hate the rich who start university scam, defraud people, not pay contractors or otherwise obtain their wealth by breaking the law or by using other unfair practices.
We have no problems with guys like Buffet, Musk, Zuckerberg, etc. Liberals are for companies who really help the economy.
Right-wings on the other hand, seem to like hedge funds, old money, coal companies, and other businesses that make money by either destroying the earth or by moving money around without contributing much to society.
Why would liberals hate the rich? The majority of liberals live in the riches states in the country. So we hate ourselves??? Only a right-winger would think that makes sense.

So you don't think any of Zuckerberg's dealings with the Winklevoss twins were unfair, or underhanded. Got it.
No, they aren't. They pay about a 7.5% effective Federal Income Tax Rate. Meanwhile, the top 1% pays an effective rate of over 27%, 3.6 times the middle class rate.
InformedConsent is a Fair Share Warrior and thinks fair share means same as "get the middle class".
Not at all. Just pay what you owe.
