If you made your billions and pay virtually no tax through massive avoidance your hardly an outstanding citizen.

Before being applouded for fuzzy charitable statements there needs to be more detail. Lots of billionaires donate money to charities with a very capitalist outlook. I'm very critical of some of the work of b&mg.

People that shout about how much money they will give to Charity are vulgar and attention seaking.
