The guy has devoted the last 20 years and donated $50 billion trying to improve poverty, health and educational issues all over the planet.

Can you link any results that this $50 billion has produced other than on his tax forms.

Bill Gates has less scruples than a bank robber.

Bill Gates' net worth increased significantly when he started giving more money away via the Foundation.

That should tell you that whatever he "gives," actually makes him a significant amount of money.


Link?

And what would be your point since he plans to donate 99% of his wealth to charity when he dies. I thought just the Democrats were activists in the war against wealth. Looks like we got a few Trump baws that hate 'em too.

It's easy to sit back and say things like that when you have that kind of money.

Says the guy with 6 billion dollars


His foundation spends $6 billion a year. A billion on expenses like salaries ($300 million), benefits ($100 million), and preferred contractors ($250 million).

No, its tough to tell people who rely on a paycheck every Friday to pay their utilities, grocery, mortgage, car loan, credit card, etc that they have to stay home and will not be able to work for months.

It's easy for a billionaire to think staying home is no big deal.

You think so, huh?

Did you also know that it was a "novel coronavirus", their words, that they were exercising?

What a coincidence.
