  OSFA > Good question. To be honest I don't know. Sometimes Bono host a charity gala to give millions away when he's rich enough just to give the money anonymously - he doesn't, he always shouts about what he gives away. Why is that?

  Bill Gates is considered the devil by many but probably gives more funds than anyone else on the planet (?). He gives more than Radiohead and Bono together, still he will always be hated by many. Why is that?

  There are many shades of grey. I was speaking specifically about this case, where individuals CAN benefit indirectly from other peoples suffering.

  Not sure how to be more specific, sorry.

  • Gates is using his ill-gotten money to buy a better public image. Bono shouts and gyrates because it calls attention to the cause du jour.i_monk
