Government needs to learn from Gates

Published 9:00 pm Thursday, July 6, 2006

Thanks to the Gates family, and the Buffett family!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if our own federal government would use the money it spends on war supplies: like bombs, jeeps, guns, etc. to do something great like the Gateses have? If our military spending went to something like the Bill &Melinda Gates Foundation, which uses it to improve education, reduce poverty and improve public health, wouldn’t this be a better place to live?

Thank you very much Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffett, for doing what is good and right.
