So what's GDP these days? ~ 14 trillion? So divide by 100, that's 140 billion, multiply by 3 is 420 billion. How old is Warren these days? I don't think he's getting to see the 5 minute solution, barring reincarnation.

You know, because we can't ever raise more revenue.

Yeah, what does Warren Buffett know about economics? I mean, he never worked as a community organizer. What a piker.
