40 U.S. millionaires, headed by the two richest people in the world
Bill Gates and Warren Buffet, united around "The giving pledge"
initiative. They agreed to allocate half of their wealth for charitable
purposes. Film director George Lucas, Mayor of New York Michael
Bloomberg, CNN founder Ted Turner, David Rockefeller, Paul Allen and
others are among them. Measures will be directed to the sphere of
study of a number of diseases, other educational charitable projects.
Gates and Buffet made such an appeal in June, 2010. Their appeal
received a wide response. Millionaires agreed to allocate money during
their lives, as well as add such a point in their will.
Overall, there are 400 billionaires in the U.S. Armenian millionaires,
doubtlessly, will take such philanthropy manifestation with a
contemptuous smile. However, in a short while, they will get sad. The
point is that unlike Armenian millionaires, those in the U.S. do
not need to kill people, make breaches, have shaved-head bodyguards,
make their co-citizens slaves, pay "black" taxes in order to preserve
and to double their wealth: at the same time even after all this live
under the threat of becoming a bum.
