Charlie Rose – Warren Buffett.

 

As always Buffett is illuminating and comforting.  He is the nation’s economic compass and a person we can consider a  genuine national treasure if there ever was one.   In this great interview with Charlie Rose he likens the budget debate as a game of chicken with two cars lined up heading  toward one another.  Both parties think the other will turn away before mutual self destruction except suddenly one party throw the steering wheel out the window.  Suddenly the other driver realizes he is dealing with an insane person, aka the Tea Party.
