Buffett is no model taxpayer

Warren Buffett in his lifetime will have kept billions of dollars out of the government in taxes. Instead of keeping his billions in his name and paying capital gains tax each year and death tax when he dies, he chooses to take a huge tax deduction by giving his billions to the Gates Foundation. I might be wrong, but I don’t think he ever paid more in taxes then what he had to by law. You might want to hold him above others, but he really is far below most.
