Warren Buffett says healthcare is 'the tapeworm of the American economy'

Buffett praised President Obama's reform law but said healthcare costs remain the "No. 1 problem" for business.

Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett on Friday called healthcare “the tapeworm of the American economy.”

Buffett, co-hosting Bloomberg TV’s “In the Loop” program, called President Obama's healthcare law a "step in the right direction," but said the high cost of insuring employees remains a drag on business.

“I think the healthcare problem is the No. 1 problem of America and of American business,” Buffett said. “We have not dealt with that yet.”

They'd support virtually unlimited spending to make that stop.

7. They'd raise taxes if that were the case. They'd just call them something else...

...and put them on the non-rich.
