how do you like Buffet now Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Owes Taxes Going Back To 2002 A little over two weeks ago, Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, the third-richest person in the world, penned an op-ed critical of the low tax rates for the superrich. It would seem his own company hasn't prioritized paying its rightful share in a timely fashion either. Berkshire Hathaway, the eighth-largest public company in the world according to Forbes, openly admits to still owing taxes for years 2002 through 2004 and 2005 through 2009, according to the New York Post. The company says it expects to "resolve all adjustments proposed by the US Internal Revenue Service" within the next year.

Warren Buffett Owes 1 Billion in Back Taxes oh wait he likes homos and wants to be taxed more,wink,wink There are are two recent cases where Warren has done everything possible to AVOID paying taxes that he actually owes. The first case involved a 14-year fight over the dividend-received deduction that was finally settled with the IRS in 2005. The second case is still pending after 10 years in which he owes just over $1 BILLION in back taxes. If only we raised taxes on the rich, the well-connected crony capitalist rich like Warren Buffett still wouldn’t pay theirs. We don’t need to raise taxes. We need to crack down on crony capitalism and political corruption. Crony capitalists like Buffett shouldn’t be able to score billions off the government and avoid paying billion
