Huh? The richest couple in the world are coughing up 10 or 20 seconds worth of income but only if regular folk match the money? What? If you’re gonna give, Mr. and Mrs. Gotrocks, give. If not, just build yourselves another home somewhere, or buy a painting, or just shut up.
I’d be more impressed with the Gates Foundation if it did something for Americans. It’s not that I’m unsympathetic with the plight of East African Dairy Farmers, but people are hungry in my country, too.
