    Nothing beats land: Bill Gates is now America’s biggest farmer

    He is famous for his sensible office garb and digitally-amassed fortune, rather than rugged overalls and a weathered hand on the plough. But the pioneer spirit, it turns out, burns bright in Bill Gates.

    Late in life, the sultan of software, emperor of intangibles, has discovered what the British aristocracy have known for a thousand years: nothing beats land.

    There is a certain irony, of course, about Gates, 65, becoming the USA’s biggest private owner of farmland, which American publication the Land Report recently declared him to be. Here is the epitome of elite coastal America, born in liberal Seattle on the Pacific, educated (until he dropped out) at Harvard, investing financially and emotionally in the rural “fly-over” states between, swapping ones and zeros for soil and sod......
    sod.

  3. I referred to this. Perhaps I misread. That, however, makes your statement even more ridiculous. The vast majority of his philanthropy is self funded. Just because other NGOs or governments hop on board in no way negates nor minimizes his work. But what am I saying, you sound like you made up your own facts. And please don't embarrass yourself further by picking a single project where he may be a minority stakeholder. Look at his effort holistically and in its entirety.

  4. So much hate for Bill Gates. Does anyone seriously believe he has a lab coat doing medical research? More likely he is the financier and spokesman. No one cares about the CEO of Pfizer (he was a veterinarian)

    The Previous CEO of Pfizer, says in a video you'll have to find as it gets pulled a lot, that there is no reason to role out a barely tested experimental vaccine to everyone on the planet, just the people at risk is all that's needed, also says Covid is over hyped and the only reason he can see behind all this hard work and BS, is it's a depopulation plan.

    He's a Doctor and Vaccine expert aswell.

    I agree with him!!

    Belgium says not serious enough to be a Pandemic others will hopefully follow.

    Lockdowns and media led over hyped irrationall fear is what's caused all the damage.

    Interesting how anyone trying to stop the fear mongering is being censored and labelled conspiracy nuts.

    Over a year in still nobody has died that I know of, only made up fake 1s, not 1 on a ventilator unable to breath, odd that!

    Not false, just none PC not part of the narrative, just because your incapable like everyone of understanding logic, reason and facts and prefer fantasy fear media land.

    You've just scared everyone into taking a rushed barely tested vaccine, people not at risk at all, as in if you get your way the entire planet, and it seems NO isn't an option, and that's the good? Because the media has said it is.


    Covid Cowards have just ruined the world, made everyone but the elites poorer and took away freedom, ofcourse well get it back lol grow up!

    Notice insults but yet again no attempt to counter my logic, why is that, your pc social programming is working, when someone says the truth you get angry and you ignore them, praise be to PC!

    Turvey, I never said vaccine is good for you... Or governments and media are the ones to listen to.
    But that does not mean I have to believe qanon rethoric.

    You talk about truth and facts without any evidence or professional experience.

    Do you work in a London hospital?

    Like this you show zero respect for people who suffered losses because of this little shitty virus.
    I know a few, and have a few friends who are doctors and nurses both in Italy and UK.

    I understand the anger. I have read that your business is in trouble, mine too.

    Do I blame the government? Yes, definitely. Too little too late.

    Do I believe covid is an hoax? No way.... That is at trump idiocy level.
