>but muh philanthropy Even sans the exploitative nature of capitalism, we need to ask ourselves why it’s ok for billionaires to decide where our society’s wealth goes.
What makes the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation qualified to decide how to distribute whatever percentage of our collective wealth? What voice do those of us who generated it (and I mean from those of us who built the roads and laid the first bricks of the city of Seattle/Redmond to the most recently christened Microsoft MVP) have in its distribution?
Why should government officials decide where the money goes?

Bill had a major hand in inventing the coding language and OS that the entire world runs on.
Shut your mouth.

Hudson Nguyen
so not very off, he assumed they'd be worth slightly over a dollar per piece. clearly he doesn't realize that processed food is absolutely fucking repulsive
Blake Carter
True. We also thank the guy who sold DOS for like 60 bucks and Xerox from which he and Jobs took ideas. You know, like the windows their OS had.
Mason Hernandez
He didnt.

It is not about the wealth distribution, it is about the quality of life of the people. If you have the highest quality of life on the planet, but feel the need to bitch about how you were given that quality of life, I would suggest you fuck on off somewhere better.
