This is a normal post
Ok, some of their editorial is really suspect.

"Around 800 children will die of malaria today. A small group of super rich people could stop it for a sum of money so small that they would likely never even notice its absence. But they choose not to."

Well fuck. I wonder what the Gates Foundation has been doing all this time.

Oh look. www.gatesfoundation.org/what-we-do/global-health/malaria

"To date, we have committed more than US$2.9 billion in grants to combat malaria. In addition, we have committed US$2 billion to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. We also advocate for sustained and increased funding of malaria-related efforts by donor governments and affected countries."

This is a normal post Even if the claims are exaggerated the wealth disparity is ridiculous.
However they might need it when we fail to tackle climate change.

This is a normal post Gates has an excellent publicist, but what he says about making vaccines available for all
is apparently at odds with his actions wrt the Oxford/AstraZeneca "team up."

He's a devout capitalist above all else.

This is a normal post OK: so let's allow that Gates's heart is in the right place.
So what? It's still relying on a system in which we end up relying on the private philanthropy - for which read pet projects - of a few people whom we've allowed to become ridiculously wealthy. To say that that justifies the disparity really is straw-clutching.
