But Warren Buffet Likes the Estate Tax

The Right loves rich people. Maybe that began with the Puritans and Calvin's belief that God showered wealth upon his chosen elect as a sign of His favor. The Right especially love super rich people like Warren Buffet, a man who for decades has remained one of the wealthiest men in the world. Sites like Newsmax hawk his books on investing more than the Bible. So, when Warren Buffet testified before Congress in favor of the estate tax, the Right couldn't Swift Boat him; they just took snarky shots while the subtext sneered, "Why can't he stop being a do-gooder and embrace being privileged like the rest of us chosen people?"
