Bill Gates Promotes Junk Food for Profit, Pretends to Fight Hunger (With Patent Maximalism)

Coca-Cola "successfully pursued water privatization" (see killercoke.org)

Red can



Summary: Petrol, Coke and burger/fries investments without all that 'pesky' federal tax; or, how Gates became far richer last year despite financial meltdown and so-called 'giving pledge'

The Gates Foundation has had Bill Gates pushing his patent crusades under the guise of charity. It's privatisation of nature's food resources with marketing propaganda, usually patents disguised as "helping feed the hungry". The food monopolies, turning nature (public) into "intellectual property" (private), are a subject we addressed here many times before. Here is some Gates marketing that neglects to name the patents for a reason. It would not be golden marketing if people knew that some people get rich in the process. Dr. Glyn Moody says "translation: ripe for patents" when he links to the article "Bill Gates: Food Is Ripe for Innovation". He is right about the motives, it is about patent monopolies. It is not just GMO anymore.



Mr. Gates now invests (for profit, of course) in Exxon Mobil, Wal-Mart, and Caterpillar. So much for charity, eh? See this new article for more such examples. This other article names Coca-Cola, Caterpillar, and McDonald's. The business of the foundation (it's a business, but "charity" disguise gives tax exemptions) is investment. To quote Forbes: "Bill Gates Foundation buys Coca-Cola Co, Procter & Gamble Co, Wal-Mart Stores Inc, Willis Group Holdings PLC, Signet Jewelers Ltd, Autoliv, Inc., Orbotech, Ltd., sells Costco Wholesale Corporation, CSX Corp, Expeditors International of Washington, Inc., Cemex, S.A.B. de C.V., Comcast Corp, The Greater China Fund, Inc. during the 3-months ended 12/31/2012, according to the most recent filings of his investment company, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Trust. As of 12/31/2012, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Trust owns 26 stocks with a total value of $16.8 billion. These are the details of the buys and sells."

"It's all about PR, branding, and mind control."Is this charity? It is worth noting that Melinda Gates becomes a Huffington Post writer after the scandal which threw her out of the trend-setting media. Melinda, as usual, is pretending to be the world's parent (she and her husband belittle all except themselves and their authority in a God complex/megalomaniac fashion) with articles like this one. No comment needed.

How does Gates feel about promoting and advancing the agenda of the companies which do exactly the opposite of what he claims to be his "causes"? Like companies that cause polio, promote tobacco, advance wars, reduce populations, cause starvation, reduce the reach of education, poison human/animal organs, and so on? We gave a lot of examples before. People ought to develop sceptical skills and recognise that Gates has been buying the big media for over a decade, making it almost unthinkable to say -- let alone believe -- that he does the opposite of what he claims to do. Ethics are not profitable. In order to grow his wealth, which he still does, Gates needs to do one thing while pretending to do another. Nothing is more bothersome than mass deception of the public, especially with media complicity. That's how rogue political parties come to power and how third-world nations get lured into modern-age inhumane labour or bondage slavery. It ought to be noted that Coca-Cola, a hugely unethical company (see killercoke.org), is often cited (by name!) by Bill and Melinda as the thing they strive to mimic. It's all about PR, branding, and mind control. Physically, it's all water, sugar, caramel, and some chemicals inside glass, plastic, or aluminum. Hypnosis of association -- assimilating a soda drink to sex and popularity -- is truly an art form. Gates does not stand for poverty, he causes poverty and he is very comfortable in his plutocrats' circle.
