    I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made...

    "I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it makes you mad, then you invent the next operating system thats better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you."

    I agree. Who wrote this? Tough time trying to figure this out on Google...

      i agree its his money. but doesn't he have enuf of it by now? do we have to keep buying new software almost yearly? seems that perhaps they deliberately wait to release certain elements so everybody will want the new stuff.

        That is just business. Businesses are money-making entities, and they always will be.

                Was it Bill Gates accountant?

                Everyone has to pay taxes, so does he. Or does he drive to work on different roads, his employess were taught in different schools, etc. to the rest of us?

                He probably keeps more of his income than most of us and the extra amount all goes into an offshore account, investments, homes, etc, so much for the trickle down theory.

                    he deserves the right to be respected even people continue to attack his company. maybe he can very well be considered the man who revolutionized the Internet era. Nobel Prize maybe? lol

                        Bill Gates donates more money to charities daily than most of us will ever make in a year.

                          Considering he has donated $5,000,000,000, that would be about $210,000/day for everyday of your life for 65 years.

                            Furthermore, when he was worth $100,000,000,000.00... it would be the same as receving $2,700,000/day for 100 years. Dollar amounts that huge are insane.

                              I agree. Gates should be taxed at a 99% rate. Screw it, let's just take everything and leave him $1M/year.

                              Let's do that to all the rich people.

                              Hell, let's cap everyone's salary at $50k/year. Then we can all be the same.
