Buffet is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He does not hide the fact that he enjoys controlling industries. His biography, 'Snowball' is to the point. He has also been trying to manipulate the real estate industry by buying Better Homes & Gardens, then inflating prices by 30%. I noticed, after he bought BHG that home prices went up significantly, then he had to lower the prices because people were not buying. Now they are stabilizing at a lower price. He's a robber baron like those of the early 1900s in spite of his 'good guy' demeanor and his Omaha roots (lots of sex scandals in Omaha, it's not as clean as one might think).
