    I guess by donating half of his net worth in the last ten years to help poor countries become healthy & financially independent. I guess because Gates Foundation donates huge amounts to improve education in US. How do U think GOVT would make better decisions with his tax money?

        Sharyl, I heard from someone in Israel the other day and I was told that he thinks you are an American hero. After watching you, I agree. Bravo young Lady. We are proud of your thought process.

        By saying his taxes should be higher, Mr. Gates is implying that the government would make better use of his money than he does.

        Rich liberals believe that the government can spend our money more wisely than we can. Hence taxes. And they know they can spend their money more wisely than the government can. Hence Foundations. They think they are better than gov and gov is better than us.

        In fact, that’s the point! The reason Bill doesn’t give more to the govt is because he wants to make sure his money isn’t wasted.

        So did that money actually succeed in making them “healthy and financially independent”? Who did he donate to, Switzerland?

        But why should the mega rich get to decide how their what would otherwise be taxable monies are spent while the rest of us poor slobs have no control over how our tax monies are spent? And then they make outrageous statements about taxes not being high enough.

        He wouldn't do it if he didn't have to. It's a right off on his taxes. Anyone knows that and it's not out of the goodness of his heart.

        The thing I don’t understand is, why would Bill Gates think the U.S. government could do a better job using his money than him? For a genius to believe that would be the case is about the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of 🙄

        The big question is why does he think we should all pay more to the most inefficient operation in our county? Thought he was a smart businessman???!!
