In Gates’ own case, he’s right, as anyone who knows the history of Microsoft’s business practices is well aware. For every dollar he ever made he probably cost a thousand to others who were hostage to his unlawful monopolistic behavior.

Yep. The history of Microsoft’s rise is littered with the bodies of those who innovated and got bought out or bankrupted by him. Names like WordPerfect Corp. and Great Plains Accounting software, just to name two.
