Setting aside expropriation, do you disagree that people often equate wealth with merit or virtue?

Christians have a long problem pushing their ideals and glad this guy suggests listening first.

Don't like he said The Universities will not find the solution.

Redistributed wealth in the forms of grants have provided solutions.

There really shouldn't be Entrepreneurs (Billionaires) in general.

If I was to capture the imagination of my own people nay the rest of the world it would be to send aid that's proven to work on HIV and Ebola. But yeah, Entrepreneurs or Billionaire wanting to get rich are the ones saying lets roll the dice and get rid of it all.
Bro the 118th told you to quit using PEPFAR money for anti-life services, but the bureaucrats decided they knew better than the electeds and played chicken with the train. 🚂

programs like HIV/AIDS funding have produced measurable results

even if there are policy disagreements, that doesn’t negate the overall effectiveness of global health funding

Idgi are you pretending it's your idea and not what the only Evangelical to ever hold the office already did?

So has Christianity and entrepreneurs.

Even if there are disagreements, it doesn’t change the overall effectiveness of charity.

Also the US was responsible for roughly 95%+ of all donor government HIV funding ... an almost absurd gap between the US and everyone else.

So why are we saying entrepreneurs are bad, if without them you wouldn't have any HIV/AIDS funding at all?

yep Government grants that yielded the biggest benefits to the US.


@Reiwa - Whether it was The Shrubbery man or anyone else isn’t really the issue. The point is that these programs work, and they rely on sustained public funding—not individual wealth accumulation or entrepreneurship. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
