O/T re Gates and government weird how unpredictable things can be..could it be that the government and the antitrust matters have made Gates become the biggest philanthropist ever.possibly becoming a father...don't know if it was posted about how much of his wealth he just gave away..I think it was 3 billion(oops 3.3)..the article in the times also said he planned to give away most and leave his family with a little(which will probably be a ton) Also as mentioned before..now that Muriel Siebert has become a billionaire,wonder if she will leave her wealth to animal associations :-)http://biz.yahoo.com/rf/990203/bth.html (she has a precious dog I think named Monster dog..people are curious if Monster dog or whatever the sweetie pies name is is interested in "marriage") I hope you are right about competition and a lot of the weathiest people in the world will try to oneup Gates on this one..It is not socialism..it is capitalism at its best! dailynews.yahoo.com cbs.marketwatch.com
