To: worst-case scenario

My point is that he is welcome to his wealth, it doesn’t belong to the government. I’m just pointing out that Old Man Scroogates is a pennypincher who underpaid workers and lobbied government to permit him a wider labor pool so that he COULD underpay workers.

The profit saved was not distributed to employees or shareholders. It went in his moneybin.

I hope the rat bastard marxist chokes on it. Bill Gates is bad for America.

To: a fool in paradise

How can he be a Marxist if those are his business beliefs? He is acting as a total Capitalist! He is looking for the cheapest labor he cxan find. He is working for the most favorable business environment.

If He was a Marxist, he would surrender the company to some form of collective ownership of the proletariat (the masses). He would, at the very least, permit a union of Microsoft workers. Ownership by a collective of workers is the very *foundation of Marxist belief!*

If he still owns the company and controls all its wealth, then he is no Marxist. I say he’s a perfect Capitalist, a modern J.P. Morgan or Andrew Carnegie. Look at the way he used the power of monopoly to overwhelm and decimate any competition? Even though his OS is a piece of crap and buggier than a unwashed crotch in Brazil, it dominates over 90% of the world’s computers. 2A simple virus can spread incredibly fast and cost kazillion dollars *because* Windows has the monopoly it does. That’s a monopoly.

No he’s like the great king in the castle, dispensing his largesse to everyone that meets his standards. Just like Carnegie! People called Carnegie a “socialist,” too, for building all those libraries and letting *anybody* in the public in! Smelly old junkyard owners could borrow a book, just because they lived in the same town! The Irish and Italians and all those immigrants!

What makes him a “marxist? Because Gates does NOT fit the definition.
