Everything I ever heard about him pre politics was positive . Jessie Jackson gave him an award for his work in marginal communities . I have also heard of many spontaneous acts of kindness and generous acts . How much , who cares ? How should I know ? How much Buffett gives , who cares ?

No . But I try not to feel superior to our southern neighbours when we have so many problems of our own .
It is a famous quote that has been given much mileage . Sure maybe I can google both their charitable donations and decide who is more of a philanthropist, but I already admitted that Buffet is probably very generous . He also looks after his own interests like any other astute investor .
You were very close to being part of that country a hundred and fifty odd years ago .
Read the history of B.C. and get back to me . In 1867 Canadians were looked down on by inhabitants of B.C. . As most inhabitants were English and American . The United States had just purchased Alaska . The British were negotiating settlement with the U.S. re interference into civil war . The Brits almost sold B.C. to the States to cover their debt . It was only their naval base in Esquimalt that prevented that deal .
But tell me how Canada was one big happy family .
You should read some of it as well . 1871 the population of B.C. 36,247 , of which 25661 , native , 1548 Asian . 8576 European .
We are doing such a disservice to the natives that they were down to 2,713,615 by 1981 .
Really , my numbers are taken from the Colonial Office and Census Bureau of Canada , are they incorrect ? Where ?
Do you know the British payed reparations to America after the Civil War , and why ?
Do you know America purchased Alaska the day after the BNA received royal assent and the ramifications of such ?
Explain it all to us ,.
I am giving you the opportunity to expand your knowledge . But you are not really interested in that , when trolling is much more satisfying..
