Since you bring him up specifically I'm guessing you already know he's a capitalist but is perfectly fine with hereditary wealth extracted from other people's labour, so maybe look into his predatory practices towards the poor, e.g. in lending, or other corporations.
Perhaps you also recognise this quote:
"There's class warfare, all right, but it's my class, the rich class, that's making war, and we're winning."

- cess11 1y agoIf you look at the context here you'll notice that this is about whether Buffett is exploitative, and as the quote shows, he said that he is.
