- dredmorbius 5y agoI agree. My point isn't that the failure invalidates Gates's approach or attempts. If you succeed at everything you try, you're not taking any risks. My point is that the failure has become fuel for critics, who would quite likely find any possible basis to make such criticisms. (I'm not uncritical of Gates myself, nor do I consider myself a fan. He ran a highly successful business unethically and illegally. He's been a major philanthropist. His campaigns have a mixed record (see comment re: risks above), with some successes and some failures. The policies he pursues are often self-serving, especially regarding software and intellectual property rights.)
