Well now that’s a pretty selfish thing to do. Equip your own business.
Is he Dying ?
Slip a couple of $B to your old college room mate.
Where would you have ever been without him?
Sounds like a great inheritance tax dodge !
Watch him die, and the foundation move to become more conservative and all his money then be used for GOD.
Ww can pray for it.
There should be a 33% annual tax rate on all foundations. They never end up being good.
Is it his foundation that’s buying up the farm and ranchland across America?
Yeah, we need another Ford Foundation.
Didn’t his ex wife basically become one?
““I have an obligation to return my resources to society in ways that have the greatest impact for reducing suffering and improving lives,” Gates added on Twitter.”
Obligation? No. Rich people do not have any obligation to direct their money in any sort of way.
It is Gates’ choice to decide what to do with his money and his property.
His kids get bupkis.
Recently learned that Billy Gates Senior was on the board of Planned Parenthood. They’re all part of the same eugenicist, globalist movement. I never thought I’d sound this much like Alex Jones..
From what I have heard, $129 billion goes a long way in North Dakota.
He will control the money in the foundation. Pure virtue signaling.
If he wants to REALLY do something, promise every kid in Alabama or Mississippi or some other impoverished state that he will pay for college for every child making straight “A”s in school.
Oh great. He’ll give it to a congregation at his church of the
Open Constitutional Rights Deniers.
Who is he kidding?
We’re still dealing with the likes of the Ford Foundation and
other Communist leaning enterprises.
Which almost entirely goes to other nations. ( I looked it up)
For those who don’t know, foundations are a tax shelter for the very wealthy. Giving “donations” to their foundation protects those funds from a variety of taxes, including income taxes, estate taxes, gift taxes, and capital gains, among other benefits.
Change the tax laws to prevent this. Non-profit institutions are the last untaxed part of our society. They should all be taxed!
“...the greatest impact for reducing suffering and improving lives...”
Would that include the elimination of the Blue Screen of Death?
Didn’t Asimov write about this?
