What does Bill Gates know about raising chickens? (cringely.com)

> How long will these regions require our charity? When will people recognize that the charity is what’s holding them back? Just my opinion.

The invisible hand will save us all as long as we just get out of its way, surely... (cringe)

BillG is trying to expand out into other areas with his foundation. Apparently he wants to use vaccines to help people, but isn't aware of the environmental effects. He also seems to think raising chickens is easy. So a real chicken farmer describes just how hard it is.

I know BillG means well, being one of the richest men in the world does not mean he is an expert on everything. Some things he has been wrong on. Some stuff at Microsoft didn't do so well either like MS-Bob and the Office Paperclip assistant. So he gets things wrong sometimes.

I really hope he uses his money to talk to real chicken farmers and innovate an easier way to raise chickens via technology.
