Rich-bashing is so unproductive. You do realize he runs a huge charitable foundation and has pledged half his money to it, right? Why are you mad at “the billionaires”? Why can’t they have a voice and a platform? Because they’re rich and out of touch? What evidence do you have of that?
- Simulacra 7y agoI’m not mad at the billionaires, I’m disappointed. If I could direct your attention away from the hyperbole and to what I actually said: Bill and Melinda may give tons of money to their foundation, and he may have pledge to give away all of his money to his foundation, but I would like to see where he is giving money personally to other places. I don’t hate Bill Gates really any billionaire, but I’m deeply suspicious when everything is basically circular going into their foundation and their causes.
