The riches they amass come from exploiting the people. Its not something that should be taken lightly.

  Did Bill Gates exploit you? Please explain how.

    His wealth came from siphoning off profits from his employees and charging exorbitant prices for his products. The monopoly microsoft held was used to strangle smaller companies out of the market. None of these actions were directly targeted at me but the world is much larger than you or I.

    Yes He used his power to push shitty and proprietary software into my industry, thus limiting the impact that properly developed software could have created. I had no choice in this and he used everything from back-room deals to flat out lies to achieve this.

      > I had no choice in this and he used everything from back-room deals to flat out lies to achieve this. And a couple of well documented crimes.

        I'm likely to believe that, but can you provide sources?
        • jacquesm 9y ago
          Microsoft's crimes have been well documented, no need for me to provide sources if you're not familiar with any of this, Google is up and running.
