In yet another travesty of the death tax, Warren Buffet is giving the vast bulk of his fortune away to pluck it from the approaching claws of the federal government. If there could be a clearer indictment of the injustice of this confiscatory tax, I don't know what it would be.
Think of the yachts that won't be purchased. Think of the Berkin bags was will be without an owner. Think of the private islands in the Carribean that will lay fallow. Think of the servants* who won't be hired.
The shock to our poor economy is palable.
*Of course, think only of the good, native-born, American servants, not the evil, border jumping illegally-immigrating servants. Have no sympathy for those felons.

Yes, Warren's giving it away simply to avoid the death tax.
I applaud Warren and Gates. No one needs that kind of money, and they're doing something good with it. Its a double benefit, and warms my heart, to know that in helping the poor, he's also keeping the money from the bureaucrats and whores.
