You seem to be asking if
Buffett is a really nice guy.
In some ways, maybe not.
My only point was that even if
confiscate his money and pass it
out among the poor people,
the poor people will still
be poor and not in the middle
class -- even Buffett and the
rest of the Forbes 400 don't have
money enough to bring all the
poor people into the middle class
just by confiscation and redistribution.
That's not the only possible point
to make about inequality, but
by itself it is correct.
