    We await anything near what happened in the first Gilded Age. Chesterton on Rockefeller, "Philanthropy is the recognizable mark of a wicked man." Teddy Roosevelt, "No amount of charities in spending such fortunes can compensate in any way for the misconduct in acquiring them."

    One can agree that Bloomberg's philanthropy has brought about real improvements in the lives of many people. That his efforts in cities are especially important. And that his motivations are praiseworthy. Do these actions curry special favor with mayors?

    And yet as says, the case of shows us the limits of philanthropy in democratic societies. And the dangers of depending on the good will of the rich. It's not impertinent to badger Benioff about his outsized power. It's a journalistic and civic duty.

    It's not a new phenomenon. Behold the in Indianapolis, Eli Broad in Los Angeles, Carnegie in Pittsburgh, and so on. Here's a 19th century cartoon of Jay Gould and William Vanderbilt whose philanthropy is asphyxiating Uncle Sam.

    By all accounts he's full of civic munificence. But does pay any corporate tax? Does it lobby for its policies at odds with 's call for higher taxes on the wealthy? Will slush funds for SF school principals be enough to combat the cost of living for teachers?

    Can plutocrats be domesticated to serve rather than subvert democracy? 's longread in give us a portrait of , whose corporate leadership and philanthropy reveals a different model of a billionaire and also the limits of voluntary domestication.

    Every year on I share some of the charities that I supported today. I hope to use social connections to call attention to the work of these extraordinary organizations. For every retweet of this post, I'll donate $2. For every like, $1. Will tally on Friday.

    One of the biggest transformations in philanthropy is increasing dependence of civil society organizations on donations by the wealthy. The phenomenon of middle class giving is in depressing decline. This is one of the reasons I'm a proud board member of .

    Criticism of big philanthropy is hitting the cultural mainstream. Amazed to see 's show on the problems with billionaire philanthropy.

    Recommended holiday weekend viewing! 's 2019 Arrow Lecture at on the moral imperative of economic growth. Cowen entertained 's idea that eternal economic growth is a perverse fairy tale.

    Big philanthropy is an exercise of power by the wealthy that is unaccountable, low on transparency, donor-directed, perpetual, and generously tax advantaged. More in my book -- Just Giving -- about the relationship between philanthropy and democracy.
