Read my post and my link.

An analysis by the Boston Globe showed that last year alone, the Gates Foundation gave $1.44 billion to fund health programs for poor nations, compared to $1.16 billion given by the U.S. government. The money went to fight diseases such as AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.

Gates donates a lot of money to the UN...yes. But so do we as a nation and a ton of Republicans (Gates is one of them), tend to for some reason or another stick up for that dump in NYC and continue to believe that giving them big checks solves the worlds problems.

I like Gates and believe he does a lot of good. But he is human and makes mistakes like the rest of us. Some investments are good...others horrible.
