Billionaire investor Warren Buffett said the U.S. may need a second economic stimulus package as unemployment is poised to continue rising.
“It looks like we’re going to need more medicine, not less,” Buffett said in a Bloomberg Television interview. “We’re going to have more unemployment. The recovery really hasn’t got going.” Buffett is chairman and chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., which is based in Omaha.
