Vem Bill Gates, por favor...

I just got back from a press conference sponsored by United for a Fair Economy and Americans for a Fair Estate tax. Bill Gates (Sr.) made a very compelling case for keeping the estate tax arguing that one important reason that the super-wealthy have been able to make/keep vast sums of money is that they are fortunate enough to live in America. And, as good Americans, they owe some of their wealth to the country that made it possible for them to become so wealthy. (Li aqui.)

Nice guy. Mesmo que seja só exibicionismo. Mesmo que seja apenas o warm-glow effect.
