I am supposed to be "impressed" because a slew of billionaires have decided they feel so guilty over their ill-gotten gains they are going to "give it away" through "foundations" which are nothing more than tax writeoffs and have strings attached.
What they should have been doing all along is paying their fair share of taxes so that the rest of us would not have to worry about our public services being cut. They should have been paying their fair share all along instead of bribing politicians to find more creative ways of hoarding the money.
Call me unimpressed.
