Do you consider yourself more left or right wing?

And thanks to Bill Gates 228,000 people have jobs...  

Are you unaware that Microsoft was a small start-up?  Bill Gates wasn't handed a plate of cookies...  he made the plate of cookies.  Which is EXACTLY my point.  

It doesn't always work that way. 

Walmart hires something like 2 million, but they also displaced a lot of jobs and a lot of small businesses.

How about you answer my questions first?  You do a great job of avoiding questions and asking more from me.  How was Bill Gates not the definition of risky?  

I said now. 

Do you think that a billion dollar company has the same or bigger risk as one that's run out of a garage?  

Bill Gates also was never the definition of risky. He came from a relatively well off family. If MS didn't work out, he would've had options. He wouldn't have lost his house if it didn't work out.  He even said himself, he would have just gone back to Harvard if it didn't work out.  

I don't know what "I said now" means.  

the fact you think dropping out of college and starting a kick-up in a garage wasn't risky... lol.  I got nothing for you man.  I really don't.  

If we cannot align that Bill took all the risk with starting MS, there is no need for additional debate, because that is just nonsense garbage.
