Why are people not protesting ? Businesses should stop buying Microsoft licenses and that should force Microsoft to remove bill gates completely from the company. Same should be done with Musk, trump etc.

MacKenzie Scott.
She gives money without ties.
Her entire networth is less than a fifth of the amount that Bill Gates has donated, her donations are 1/10th, and her philanthropy is a part of the Giving Pledge that Gates created.
Almost all of her donations were exclusively US based and focused charities unlike how the Gates Foundation helps the worlds most vulnerable peoples.
Gates does not donate. He makes conditional investments through a charitable vehicle. He is totally in control of his
donationsinvestments.MacKenzie Scott has donated billions more than Gates because her money was actually given away.
The average lifespan in Africa increased by 12 years as a direct result of the Gates Foundation. It’s a core founding member of Gavi which has vaccinated over a billion children around the globe, its likely to have singlehandedly eradicated entire strains of disease.
Ok. But we were talking about MacKenzie Scott .
You said “Gates does not donate”
donating money is not an indicator of goodwill. I donate money to reimburse on taxes too.
You’re out the same amount of money.
its more about the proportion of money you have vs. the money you gave. Bill can give away millions and not notice. I actually have to budget for the rest of the month to remain financially solvent.
You sound like a kid that’s easy to wow with big colourful acts. Hope you have the empathy to realize giving when you have not much yourself is far more impressive and empathetic than tossing money since it doesn’t matter whether you have it or not.
Correct. Let’s take your Gavi example.
The Gates Foundation holds a permanent seat on Gavi’s Board of Directors. That means a representative from the Gates Foundation participates in Gavi’s governance.
Jaime Sepúlveda, a former leader at the Gates Foundation, served as vice-chair of Gavi’s Board and Chair of its Executive Committee.
Gates money buys control.
It is not a donation.
He gave them money
They spent the money to vaccinate 1 billion children
That’s what fucking charity is
No. Gates is in full control of how he spends his money. Nothing is given away.
The charity foundation exists only to reduce the tax bill.
