Dark Side of Giving- The Rise of Philanthro- Capitalism


Source- Economic Times (25th March 2011)

This article makes a shocking revelation about the so called philanthropic interests of Melinda and Bill Gates Foundation. Warren Buffet is currently in India requesting Indian Business Men to contribute Funds to the Gates Foundation. 

The article says that they are not doing it out of charity, but to propagate and encourage American Corporate interests.

Africa is one place where the French and Europeans have greater influence than the Americans. Now both the Gates foundation and Rockefeller foundation is planning a new activity. It's termed as Alliance for Green Revolution in Africa (AGRA).  The real intention is to make 'MONSANTO' a dominant player in Africa. In due course of time they plan to make African agriculture fully dependent on the Genetically Modified varieties as they are trying with India and other Asian countries. 

There's another accusation against the Gates foundation. ie they have invested $23 billion in Monsanto, when asked about this Bill Gates replied that investment and charity must be seen separately. How can it be so when the main aim of the organisation is to help them come out of difficulties in life?

Some time back, Bill Gates had visited India and requested Indian business men to donate to their foundation. Shiv Nadar of HCL technologies said that he would do charity through educational institutions in rural areas and not through their foundation. He must have known the actual scenario there itself. 

Bill Gates initially ruled the world through Microsoft, he eliminated all other players. Now he's trying to do it in Agriculture through Monsanto. It seems his strategy is like making the India pay to ensure their dominance over us. It reminds me of the British era when taxes were collected from Indian peasants to maintain the army which was in turn used to suppress the freedom movement. Gates wants to repeat history once again it seems.

I don't know why Americans are always so selfish? Why don't they peacefully coexist with other nations instead of always trying to dominate?
