Buffett praises U.S. actions

Billionaire Warren Buffett said the U.S. government is generally taking the right actions to help the economy recover, and it should be given some benefit of the doubt.

Roughly 35,000 people packed an arena and overflow rooms to listen to Buffett and vice-chairman Charlie Munger answer questions for five hours at Saturday’s daylong Berkshire Hathaway shareholders meeting.

The economy, succession at the top of Berkshire and the state of the company, which last year had its worst year since Buffett took over in 1965, were on the minds of many shareholders.
