This country going to hell in a hand basket and he spends the money overseas. I mean he is free to do what he wants and all, but wouldn’t it be better to put this money into something sustainable, like a business here in the USA? I mean this country gave him everything he has in terms of opportunity and he spends the money elsewhere.

He's created tens of thousands of jobs and made thousands of millionaires of lots of them. I'd say he's done more for more people in the economy than pretty much anyone else I can think of. This country didn't "give" him anything and he owes nothing "back". It's people like him that create business and wealth that are owed, not the other way around.

Now the single largest donation ever to any cause, and somehow it isn't "enough"?? Pure envy, that, and ungratefulness.

I understand the rocky ground i’m on. I would never tell anybody what to do with their own money. I guess it just sounded like Princess Dianna and her landmine crusade, or like what Haiti relief is coming too. Just seems trendy. But hey, I will shut up. Sure won’t dig my heels into this very tenuous position. :) And I hate busy bodies. So I guess today, and today only i’m a self loathing busy body!
