Gates Getting then Giving

There’s been a insidious movement underfoot here in America to portray the rich as somehow evil. If you’re making so much money, you must be doing something wrong or illegal, right? Not necessarily and Bill Gates is a prime example of a (very) rich person who gives generously of the resources he’s acquired. America, a free market economy, uses money as a motivational tool to increase productivity and innovation. Let’s not handicap ourselves with this harmful line of thinking and all work towards being generous as well. [via Thunderstruck]
