Whether they are Christian or not, Warren Buffett, Bill Gates [and hordes of others] are imbued with the Christian concepts of Virtuous Victorian Values. The culture of China is dog eat dog and human eat dog with the devil take the hindmost. The purpose of words in China is to create false illusions to deceive other people for personal gain. They don't have a monopoly on that just as VVV appear around the world in individuals and groups to a greater or lesser extent, but very rarely for any sustained period of time or at sufficient scale to benefit billions. It's amusing that TJ considers Warren as he does when TJ's surrounded by the melamine culture. Mqurice

To relieve you of ignorance, my friend is group managing director of a private company herenin hong kong that by constitution gives away 50% of annual profit to several long term social causes and had been doing so since the 60s. My friend has a difficult time juggling corporate development needs and keep up the distribution, but manage to do. The several billion valued company was instrumental in creating the watch industry in hong kong through social vc. The company also supports several universities, and funds socially important vc deals. There are plenty of examples google.com.hk Even little me annually support an orphanage in Thailand w/ a bunch of scots, and fully intend to send both Erita n jack to work there summers. My friend's company does not publicize their name, unlike the human slug that is Warren Buffett who waltzed to hong kong asking folks to give generously and was run out of town in a hurry by the likes of my friend. Warren Buffett is a Johnny come lately in so far as charity giving is concerned. Bill gates should give all, for he is singlehanded responsible for the global calamity known as windows operating system, a product from hell.
