Does MacKenzie Scott have a fanclub, and can I please be a charter member? Asking for a friend. Who is actually me. By friend I am referring to myself, Jeff Atwood. That's what I am implying.

@mlanger @codinghorror @VoiceofDuum I think you mean "if our government spent money on helping people instead of buying weapons, we wouldn't need philanthropists to keep people alive, they could donate their money to the arts instead"

I guess $24.6 B isn't enough to end homelessness anywhere. so, what aspect of society has been improved by her largess?

@rpluim @codinghorror @VoiceofDuum No, that wasn’t what I meant, but it isn’t a bad idea. Maybe both things could be true? Billionaires pay taxes and the government doesn’t piss taxpayer money away?
