As a change from my normal rant, let's hear it for billionaire investor Warren Buffet who is calling for America's mega rich to pay more taxes.
He would raise tax rates for those on more than $1million p.a with a larger increase for those on $10million p.a. or more.
He further wants to leave rates as they are for 99.7% of American taxpayers as the country sets about trying to reduce its deficit.
He is quoted in the New York Times as saying " It's time to get serious about shared sacrifice ".
I agree, let the rich bleed!

A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
