DONATIONS TO BAD CAUSES HURT MORE THAN NOT GIVING (Score 1)

Bill Gates is doing more harm than good by doing charity work for these 3rd world nations. Let me explain why. The countries he donates to are countries that are poor and rely on handouts from the west These countries are already drastically overpopulated and are destroying the environment in which they live. They irresponsibly have children that they cannot afford and then ask for handouts from the west to feed them and their offspring. By giving them handouts we are exacerbating the problem in several ways. Not only are we making these Nation States dependant on foreign aid instead of forcing them to fix their infrastructure and become self reliant. We are also increasing their impoverished populations with all the free food and healthcare. If we truly want to help these poor nations we will send them some birth control and stop making them welfare recipients Poor or rich everyone should be held accountable for their actions and having children you cannot afford should not be rewarded with handouts. Bill Gates should use his brain before throwing hundreds of millions of dollars into programs that undermine the kind of civilization that made him a billionaire. His money would be better spent by putting it into nature conservation and clean energy. If he still wants to put money into the medical field, why not donate to eugenics, something that will truly push the human race forward instead of putting it deeper into a quagmire. But to answer the question, Steve Jobs is doing more for humanity by his innovations and successful business initiatives, than Bill is by Carelessly throwing money at counterproductive charities.
