Personally, what it comes down to for me, is that if you made your fortune in America, I think your charity should be focused on the needs of Americans in some way.
Warren Buffet’s son is another example. He’s doing a very good thing, taking his inheritance and trying to improve agriculture in Africa to alleviate starvation.
But what is it, one in three children in America go hungry now on a consistent basis?
When did our country become so focused on turning its backs on its fellow citizens? I consider the vast wasted of wealth that goes to the Pentagon as part of this also.
Our birthright is being taken from us so that we can have a few dozen billion dollar bombers, F -35 fighter jets that cost hundreds of millions, and have constant problems.
When did Boeing and Northrup Grumman and McDonnel Douglass acquire the rights to all of the taxes we pay over our public schools, national parks, and road and bridge repair?
