You are the one who posted articles where gates said his wealth was unfair. Then why does he still cling to it? Same with Buffet.

You’ve been going on and on about how bad it is that some are wealthy while others are not. i’m just listening to you...

i’ll ask
for the third or fourth time, how would anyone be better off, if gates and buffet didn’t accumulate their wealth, but worked at minimum wage jobs instead? You have said wealth inequality is a problem.

If Bill Gates didn't start MS, perhaps I wouldn't be wasting time here arguing with you.

once again, i ask
an obvious question, you can’t answwr it seriously without making me look correct, so you lob a stupid insult. Notice a pattern here.

For the tenth time, if Buffet thinks his wealth is bad, why is he clinging to iit?

Last time I check both Gates and Buffet had given away billions of dollars to charity.

last time i checked, each was still worth tens of billions of dollars. If they think that degree of wealth is immoral, they could have given it away a long time ago. So it seems pretty phony for them to complain about how horrible their wealth is. They only have it, because they choose to keep it.

I must have missed the part about both of them believing wealth is immoral...they just seem to really enjoy spreading it around.

Then you weren't reading Pete's articles. They both said their wealth is unethical. Not so unethical, I notice, to motivate them to give it away.

You miss everything that doesn't serve your agenda, which is why you can never criticize it or disagree with it.

I agree they are generous. That's one of the upsides of the uber-wealthy. I keep asking what the downside is, and all I get, is insults and crickets chirping.

Show me where in any article I linked, it says the accumulation of Wealth is unethical.
All of them do say that there are societal issues with Wealth distribution and power.
You claim there are none.
