The Problem with Jeff Bezos’s $2B Gift to Charity (vox.com)

Bezos knows how to measure results in complexed systems. I'm sure he has 100X the information this author has.

I wouldn't bet against him. He has the "against all odds" track record.

The sad truth is that endless money will not be able to buy or create a perfect world or significantly improve it unless their is an infrastructure and government in place. I would say it would make a lot more sense to use part of that 2 billion dollars on getting some good people into congress. Most elections sadly are simply decided by who has more campaign funding.
