The worst things human beings do.

I took 2 tins of oxtail soup, some happy shopper hoops all in date to our work food bank collection and I got accused of donating shit I had found in the back of the cupboard.

My reply was, are you spying on me?

I'm puzzled how canned food can go off.
It just can't.

It seems to be a regular theme on BM. Apparently all wealthy people are to be hated and despised. I find that very strange.
In 2010......
The lesser-known half of the duo that created the Microsoft technology empire, Paul Allen, has pledged to hand at least half of his estimated $13.5bn (£8.8bn) fortune to charity, taking up a philanthropic challenge laid down by his one-time business partner, Bill Gates.

In 2018, the The Chronicle of Philanthropy named Mr and Mr Gates the most generous philanthropists in the US in 2018.

28/07/2014 · In this year alone, Buffett gave $2.8 billion to charity, with the largest portion going to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which culminated in $13 billion for Gates’ efforts. Over the course of his investing career, Buffett has donated a grand total of $25 billion.

They became rich through their own endeavours and hard work and yet BM think they are scum.

We do seem to live in a strange world.

Haha the old philanthrophy con.
Great PR of course and entirely tax deductible.
Percentage wise compared to their worth it's like me buying a Big Mac for a beggar.
Maybe you should ask you're mate Steve Jobs why his Chinese workers are so devastatingly poor, many of them have committed suicide.

You know what Misty I could write reams about the super-rich and how they are damaging to the world's economies but it's pointless as I know to you they are heroes.

By the way I'm not left wing, I have no problem with people being well off, I'm well off, it's these multi-billionaires that are the problem for the world.
Greed, pure unadulterated greed for power.

The question arises: where is the dividing line between the admirable well off and the super rich arses?
