"It is time for us to try to make an improvement."
"The perfect is always the enemy of the good, and the unknown scares people." he said,
But tackling healthcare reform is "the right thing for the country," he added.
The current system "is not working well," Buffett told the newspaper. "Healthcare costs have galloped up as a percentage of (GDP gross domestic product) and we haven't covered the population the way a rich country should."
