Is this the way public policy is done now? Dueling billionaires throwing their money around? Gates can take his billions and shove them you know where.

- partiallypro 8y agoA lot of billionaires in the past have done great things that have solved problems that government couldn't alone. I don't really see how this is a problem. I don't think Musk, Gates and Bezos are harming society as a whole by making big advancements in rocket tech, vaccines, etc for the benefit of humanity...while also making products that also benefit people across the globe.
