Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Owes Taxes Going Back To 2002

A little over two weeks ago, Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, the third-richest person in the world, penned an op-ed critical of the low tax rates for the superrich. It would seem his own company hasn't prioritized paying its rightful share in a timely fashion either.

Berkshire Hathaway, the eighth-largest public company in the world according to Forbes, openly admits to still owing taxes for years 2002 through 2004 and 2005 through 2009, according to the New York Post. The company says it expects to "resolve all adjustments proposed by the US Internal Revenue Service" within the next year.

It's no big deal though, Niki. B-H only owes about A BILLION $ in back taxes. It's not what is said, but what is DONE that you should pay attention to.

Are you saying that company executives should bear a direct financial responsibility for the actions of publicly-held companies?

How much of the Gulf oil spill cleanup costs will you be billing BP's former CEO for, then?
