Of course education is important to entrepreneurship, that is why I donate my money to those causes. Instead of yelling at HN on how Gates or Musk should spend their money, you should, first, actually look at their donation records and see that they do in fact give significant amounts to libraries. Gates has built more libraries than you can visit in your lifetime. Second, you should walk the walk and not just talk the talk. Talk is cheap. You would benefit from reading up on those "bailouts" by the way. Whether you mean TARP or the recent FDIC actions, as you seem to not understand them. The recent FDIC action was paid by a banking insurance pool, not tax payers. Complaining of tone is a defense to the indefensible.

> Instead of yelling at HN Who is yelling? > Complaining of tone is a defense to the indefensible. Tone cannot be a problem but volume is? You could ask and I will gladly tell you who I was thinking of. I was thinking of Bezos. Gates is actually a good example I had in mind. This is why I said "If _some_ of the billionaires of today". > was paid by a banking insurance pool, not tax payers. Who do you think will pay the increased fees the banks will have to replenish their insurance pool? As another example, in 2008 it was not a bank insurance pool. I am open to being wrong, and do not pretend otherwise, but as I said, since I do not enjoy being talked in the tone you are using I will walk the walk, and stop being part of this conversation.
