    The only correct response honestly.

    This fucker, and everyone else should not ever have $147 billion to give away, or anywhere close to it.

    I’d argue it isn’t his money anyway. These psychos have concocted a system of capitalism that is inherently theft and exploitation. The wealth is dependent on the masses who are kept poor as wage slaves stuck in a perpetual cycle of produce and consume. Which most of us cannot escape.

    The masses are the cement and rebar foundation for the billionaires wealth.

    Honestly, it ain’t his money to give away. I wish people would realize this.
