I wonder how quickly he’d change his mind if we also removed the ability to launder funds donate money for tax breaks from your bank account into your foundation’s bank account.
Bill Gates is a higher class of billionaire. He funnels money through philanthropy and charities. Lonnie just lights it on fire. They are not the same. What I mean is that Billy Boy is doing exactly what you said because he’s much smarter than Lonnie.
Charities that he controls. He’s shifted power to nonprofit companies, getting additional protection from taxes in order to push his ideas. For example you may be for nuclear power or against it, but he’s able to get one built. Isn’t that the sort of thing the people should decide?
Yep. Gates came from Rich. Legit rich. Hence his education and upbringing and investor support early on. But he coupled it with, well, talent and appetite hence <gesticulates at the MS evolution and hellscape> eh overall… I prefer him to musk I guess?
It’s a hard ask because SpaceX. Otherwise… fuck that guy.
Neat part is that Bill Gates has been saying he wants taxes to increase for the ultra-rich, he is on board, if only all of them thought that way

And I’m sure there were some relatively nice nazis in WWII Germany. Still nazis.
