The vast majority of Gates' charity goes abroad, esp. India, where he and his wife just visited and contributed millions. These elitist assholes (corporate, academia, msm etc)are globalists and forget where they "made it". Good old f#$K the USA attitude.


This guy can do nothing right with people. He was criticized a few years ago for not donating enough and now that his is he is criticized anyway. We are lucky to have him. What would computers be like without him. I for one appreciate what he does even if I don't agree with everything. People are just plain nasty to the guy.

I respect your opinion, but do not forget that Gates monoplized the Windows operating system and crushed any competition resulting in anti-trust lawsuits.

Bill Gates is the "chief software architect" at Microsoft - and he has been a disaster in that role. Modern computers would be better and cheaper if Bill Gates never existed.

It's good that Microsoft has made a lot of people wealthy, but their products are low quality crap. Like network television, Windows is a vast wasteland.

He has played serious hardball in building MS into what it is, and in doing so has made some people angry. I think he'd be one of the most intersting people in the world to talk to if he would answer questions honestly and did not have to worry about what he said being in the news.

PS - it is rumored that much of his charity money goes to "population control," which puts him at odds with a pro-life agenda.

People are just plain nasty to the guy.
