When Helping Isn’t Helping

Uncategorized — By admin on May 12, 2007 at 10:49 am

FoxNews reported recently that the Gates Foundation donated $7.1M for Gulf Coast Housing.

This sounded  great.  Bill has made a lot of money, and it is enheartening to see Bill give some of it back to his customers when they are in need.

But then there is the fine print.  Bill didn’t actually give any money for Gulf Coast housing.  Bill gave $7.1M to Oxfam, who will give the money to lobbyists, who will then spend the money on crooked politicians who will in turn take your tax dollars and give them to Gulf Coast  residents.

For those not familiar with OxFam, it is a radical socialist group which opposes free-market economic growth all over the globe.

Instead of Bill’s money being spent to help people, it is being spent to lobby for organized theft.  Way to go Bill!  :(
