Will They Listen to Buffett?

Warren Buffett has a straightforward argument as to why he and the other super-wealthy should pay more in income taxes; "My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress. It’s time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice." His article in today's NY Times in a very simple manner and in straight English destroys whatever 'arguments' our wonderful leaders have advanced about lower taxes. 

Will they listen? I wouldn't bet a dime on it.
