Why would a man who made his billions in the market, espousing free enterprise, then place his support behind Obama who seems more inclined towards socialism...spread the wealth?

With treasury secretaries. I don't recall ever hearing Barack Obama saying what this author claims, but if Warren Buffet were given the authority to actually invest a portion of this country's money, his investing record beats the whatever word you want to insert here out of GWB's spend, baby, spend policy.
