[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone wants to hate Rockefellers and Carnegies, etc., but they sure don't mind going to their beautiful libraries or universities or Colonial Williamsburg, etc., or applying for grants from their foundations for do-gooder-ism.

Don’t kid yourself. The plutocrats of yesteryear felt a sense of noblesse oblige and actually funded useful public institutions. The ones of today do jack shit for the public. There’s no sense of duty or responsibility, just the desire to extract as much value as possible from everything possible, leaving American society an empty shell. [/quote]

Really? I feel like I can't turn around with hearing about the Gates Foundation. And all of Buffett's is going to charity, and started already. You sound like a crank.[/quote]
I think you're naive, Gates and Buffett are only two people, and I think the evidence bears out PP's claim.  [/quote]

Yes, correct. Gates and Buffett are the only two people giving to charity. I indeed did list them all, as intended.
