Corporate America: This is why we hate you.
Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates and General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt hope to convince the federal government to triple clean tech investments.
The pair of corporate titans said Thursday they want $16 billion to go each year to research, develop and deploy technologies including wind energy, solar and nuclear fission. Their newly created American Energy Innovation Council includes fellow heavyweights John Doerr, a venture capitalist, and Bank of America Chairman Chad Holliday, among others.
Both those assholes asking for corporate welfare could personally RISK their OWN MONEY like REAL CAPITALISTS and reap the fucking profits.
But no. They are modern businessmen: pussies who denigrate the welfare state while pumping it for as much as they can. Which means they are lionized by free market lampeyes everywhere.
