That's why I always roll my eyes when you have these wealthy retired philanthropists like the Gates going on podcasts preaching about how important xyz issue is, when they don't give a damn about tax reform that can actually create a better standard of living floor for society so that there's more opportunity for people to come up with a better solution to xyz.

But charities make idiots think these rich people care.

Can't wait to be corrected about how "they help humanity in the end" when they promise to "give away money to their own charity after death" when epstein files come out.
