#1 Gates' personal worth is many times what Epstein's was. Like a lot of smart people, Gates' mistake is thinking the rest of us are dumb enough to believe him.

#4 Did anyone at the Shitshow Times conference ask this Grifter about the botchjob called Common Core Math that he imposed on the nation's schools-- such as why he ever thought he should even be involved in education, let alone why he feels himself entitled to steamroll the nation's parents, schools and teachers with this foolish, cockamamie approach?

#7 Was it a 'mistake' to destroy Gary Kildall and Digital Research, Inc. back in the late 1980's, Bill?

If you have any experience with the GUIs that were tried on CP/M, the answer is "no."

#10 Kildall shot himself in the foot (insert appropriate anatomical reference here).
When IBM set up a meeting with him to discuss licensing CP/M for their new computer called the PC, he blew them off and went hang gliding. And that, campers, is how we ended up with MS-DOS.

#11 But the weather was just *perfect* for flying that day.

#12 The Kildall incident (along with IBM's obtuseness re the value of software) just underscores how much of our oligarchs' wealth can be attributed to blind luck.
