That's retarded. How many more people are employed in, say, southeast Asia doing MS support work and development than were "destroyed" in Microsoft's heyday?

Also, what is "destroyed" to you?
The balance is well in favor of Mr. Gates.
EDIT:
Sure, sure, downvote away. It's my understanding that, for example, Thailand employs a large number of developers on Windows platforms and technologies.
- DanBC 12y agoYou may have been downvoted for using "retarded" as an insult.
- metaphorm 12y agoI downvoted you but I want to explain why. There are two things that irritated me about your post. The first is the use of the word "retarded" to mean "something I disagree with". The word itself is nearly a slur, but if that was all it was I wouldn't downvote just on that. The problem is your conflation of disagreement with stupidity. People can disagree without either one of them being stupid. The second reason is because you're making assertions to the contrary (of the post you're replying to) without really making any reasonable argument in favor of your own position. It just adds nothing to the conversation. In fact, your own post begs a question: how many people ARE employed in SE Asia doing MS support work? What do you know about those people and their lives?
- gnaritas 12y ago> How many more people are employed in, say, southeast Asia doing MS support work and development than were "destroyed" in Microsoft's heyday? Morality isn't math, good deeds don't excuse bad deeds simply by outnumbering them. The very foundation of your thinking is flawed.
