摘要

Warren Buffett has been up on his soapbox recently, railing against the Bush Administration's tax policy. America's second-richest man—whose net worth now exceeds $57 billion—pontificates that the rich have lower tax rates than the middle class. It's not a novel argument for Buffett, but he's finding new ways to showcase it. A few weeks ago he told Tom Brokaw of NBC News that he pays less tax, as a percentage of his taxable income, than the folks who work in Berkshire Hathawa's home office. That's because much of his income is taxed at the lower dividends and capital gains rate. To prove his claim, the Oracle of Omaha produced a memo showing that he had $46.9 million in taxable income in 2006 and paid just 18% to the Feds. The average federal tax paid by Berkshire employees was nearly double Buffetfs rate, at 33%. Their salaries range from $60,000 to $750,000.
