He raped Toll Share holders. He is a hero! I would have done the same thing.

Gates, hero? I'd say his wife, Melinda, is the true hero because Gates himself never gave away a penny until he married her. =

Buffett, Hero? I'm glad he gave away his billions. Most don't realize that a good portion of his fortune was made from the so-called "death tax". Yes, good old Warren would watch like a vulture for medium-sized, privately held companies struck down by death of their principal shareholder.

The IRS would pounce and hit the surviving family with a huge inheritance tax bill that could only be paid by selling the company immediately. Buffett would show up with cash in hand and "help" them in their plight, often paying far below market value for these companies. What a guy! Now you know why he and Gates both opposed ending the inheritance tax.

Let me tell you something, that greeseball Bobby Troll should be perk walked outside his lavish home. This moron says the "shorts will be crushed" as he and his family are selling insider shares. It's outrageous!

BTW, m reynolds listed above,

WE DON'T CARE ... SOROS CAN SUCK C_CKS AND WE JUST DON'T CARE! GET IT?

I totally disagree with your characterization of Warren Buffett’s, he is no “vulture”. He likes to acquire family built businesses with solid cash-flow because they are lean and well run with the involvement of an extended family, that in-turn depends on the continued success of the company. These families are far from country-bumpkins. They consider what and how to deal with the passing of the principle owner-operator. They choose to sell to Buffet because they know he will treat the family fairly, keep the Company intact, and allow the employed family members to remain involved.

One “vulture” acquisition and Buffett would scare off all future quality prospects. Then he’d be competing with the real vultures … like the investment banks, private equity groups and hedge funds.
