    Because he's getting at the root of many of those things. For starters his done more for University of Washington than any person I can think of has done for any college in history. Educating our youth leads to better humanity and to the end of hunger.

    Also, of his 100 something billion dollars he's stated that at the time of his demise he will give away somewhere around 80% of his assets.

    He is the largest philanthropist in the world. His good will has inspired Warren Buffet to donate some 30 odd BILLION dollars to the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.

    Try doing an online search of Bill Gates and you will see that he has programs to help education, HIV patients, and libraries across the country.

    even if this person was not ignorant as fuck, and Bill Gates was some cheap bastard

    most everyone could do more than they do, who is to judge?

    Bill Gates gives a lot of money to causes that appear good and well at the superficial level, but really support the globalist agenda. He is a slime ball like the rest of them.

    what do u want...for Gates to just walk into schools to hand teachers $$$ or into homeless shelters to buy people homes?
    Then what????
    would that make a teacher better? probably not, would it solve gang problems at schools? NO
    would getting people out of shelters instantly mean they would be off welfare, drugs, in good jobs? NO NO NO
    just throwing $$$$ at any problem doesn't mean all problems are fixed

    Seems to be like the author of this post is a fairly typical hippy idiot who makes a ton of claims and accusations without checking the facts first.

    Bill Gates does indeed give a ton of money away for good causes and who gives a fuck about his 'real' agenda, he's still helping people out that really need it and I don't see them whinging when his money makes their lives just that little bit more bearable.

    How much of the money Gates donated do you think actually goes to helping people, if any at all?

    good point. just like world vision, or christian childrens fund...what percentage of the money i give to wrold vision goes into buying bibles, crosses paying ministers, nuns ect ect to teach these poor children about a god who in my opinion doesnt exist? at least 20 percent off the top goe s to administrative costs.

    how much of ANY money given to a charity actually makes it to the people who need it. I don't like Gates anymore than the next person but he should'nt be the only one singled out. Hell if I had that much money I probably wouldn't give ANY of it away to charity.

    Bill Gates has given about half of his acculmulated wealth to charity, the BMGF is the largest charity in the world.

    When has Pressed Rat ever been right about anything?

    Mr. Gates and I are not on speaking terms right now because my computer won't stop telling me I have counterfeit software. I know that, Mr. Gates, thank you very much. *scowl*
