"I think you know who made that argument. Does this ring a bell?

a reasonable argument can be made that since 50% of the population is women, and that women buy lots of stuff, perhaps they should have a voice in the rooms where what gets sold and how those companies operate gets decided."

Yes, I know when he said that. What I asked was where did he say though that "skin color, national origin, religion, lack of wealth, political party, or family name are more important or even equally important or even comparably important as actual competence"?

Pushing to have a more diverse board does not mean bringing in incompetent people. I think hiring competent people actually goes without saying. Literally, it shouldn't even need to be said in the discussion.

So given that it is important that Berkshire hire competent people for their board, what is the harm in aiming to have that board have diversified backgrounds?
