The problem with your argument is that the Gates foundation is a non-profit. They aren't trying to make a profit, they've burned through tens of billions of dollars in the past 20 years.

Are you arguing that countries should just let people die from polio rather than accept humanitarian aid or am I missing something?

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
