Bill Gates's New Version of the Einstein Letter
dcblogs writes "In 1939, Albert Einstein sent 'F.D. Roosevelt, President of the United States,' a letter with a warning about Germany's interest in a new type of energy with potential for use as a powerful bomb. The letter also outlined the competitive threat posed by Germany and steps for improving US research efforts. Last week, Bill Gates, along with GE's CEO and others, met with President Obama to deliver their own message: that of the top 30 companies in the world working on alternative energy, only four are in the US. Similar to Einstein's point and recommendations, Gates and his allies are asking the US to view the alternative energy push as a competitive threat posed by other nations, particularly China, which may be doing a better job in bringing its engineering talent and money to bear on this problem."
Saying that Bill Gates is one of the greatest philanthropists alive today is an opinion that is shared by many individuals.
With logic like that who needs logic. Almost all of Bill Gates's wealth will remain invested in Microsoft, his only legacy.
That is so much horseshit, I don't even know where to start. First of all it isn't "Think of the children" when I can take a trip to TX, pay a Coyote $4500, and a nice 9-14 year WILL be delivered to me, period. When you have NO LAWS, guess what? You get the fucking scum of the earth, surprise fucking surprise. Maybe you'd be willing to go to the families of your DEAD fellow Americans and tell them "its just business baby"? I didn't think so. It is quickly becoming a fucking warzone in the bottom states. I tell you what, why don't we bus every last one to YOUR state? How about that? Otherwise STFU, because we WILL use the power of the states if the feds refuse to do their fucking job.
This has NOTHING to do with jobs, dumbass. We are talking about a border where you can bring in ANYTHING...guns, drugs, sex slaves, a fucking bomb...anything at all. You think all those crazy jihadists won't use that against us? But don't worry, come 2012 if Nobama don't get on the fucking ball the Reps could run Bozo and win by a landslide. And then maybe we can get some fucking troops on the border. Have you see the polls? Ron Paul is but 2 points off winning if the election was held today. And guess what he wants to do to the border? Can you say 50Cals and armed drones, boys and girls? Yeah, keep your head in the sand, the rest of us will get shit done, as usual.
ACs don't waste your time replying, your posts are never seen by me.
