Do you think the first thing I think about is how much it will be taxed? Buffet mentioned this on the Daily Show and he has a point. Before Facebook, as an example, got as big as it is now, did they wonder what they would pay in taxes or go for it?

Raising the corporate or tax on higher income earners has no effect whatsoever on investments or business. What we need is money put into innovation. That makes money and does not kill the economy. All these exotic financial products being traded on Wall Street? Garbage, and its going to kill the economy.
