    This is why being a philanthropist doesn’t reform a billionaire. They’re making decisions for the rest of us using our money.

      The money still have to come from somewhere, either they get it from stock or from investment/project like these.

        keep following that chain…where do you think the $ going into the stock market comes from?

        ultimately, the entire thing hinges on underpaying people for their labor

          Uhh, where do you think i’m going? I thought it’s pretty obvious that i point to both stock and such project, which is very much contradicting to his philanthropy project, but meh people here really need to have thing spell out for them in a wall of text.
