Also by your logic, New York, with the largest documented number of homeless LGBT population on the planet, is not a good starting place for a relatively young foundation. It's funny that you're saying this about Gaga too, given that she risked her entire career and has very evidently paid the price for it by vehemently shoving LGBT issues in every bigot's ear.

You assume we live in some socialist utopia where everyone is obliged to give 99% of their wealth to help everyone else. Not everyone can pull what Mark Zuckerberg did, nor is anyone supposed to. People work hard for the money they make and they're entitled to keep as much as they want of it. It's theirs not yours or anyone else's. If a billionaire donates 1$ to an organization today, he still had more of an impact on the world than you have today. Grow up, make some money, then get back to me about how you're going to donate 99% of your money to charity. Make that 10%. You'd probably still cringe and knock it down to 5%. We're done here.

AJH219 4,448 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I see the typical haters are out in full force. Why can't y'all just vanish from the site? What are YOU doing to help the situation? Not a dang thing except sitting on a pop forum with your jocks in a wad complaining over a freaking tweet. Ridiculous.

Should probably keep your opinions about wealth to yourself since you're in the top 20% I'm from Lebanon, living under the international poverty line, being supported by a widowed mother and a university that gives me hefty financial aid but not enough to fully cover it leaving me with student loan bills just waiting for me to graduate so I can pay them all back over the course of the next ten years. I'm also not a spoiled brat who thinks I'm entitled to anyone else's money that they've worked for. I thank my mother every day, and my university donors every year, for every penny I've been given.

Fine. The point is that every benevolent contribution being made is inherently good. You can only make it better by giving more, but you don't make it worse by giving less. The only people that say otherwise are ingrates or people who have never been given anything in their life. You know...spoiled people like yourself apparently. Edited just now by LebaneseDude.

It's ridiculous that you are you grouping all rich people together as if they have it out for the rest of everyone else. They're not all the same so stop painting them with the same brush. I have issues with SOME people in the "1%" like I have issues with every other social construct you can think of. Personally, I have more important **** to worry about.
