    Looks like Bill Gates isn't the richest in the world anymore.

    Almost $70 billion whilst the majority of his country lives on $5 a day. Something not quite right there...

    Agreed... The rich get richer and the poor get poorer... I wonder if the US will ever get that bad...

    A Mexican richer than an American?

    Hm, maybe Mexicans will be able to cross the border more safely now.


    Imagine how Gates is feeling right now.

    That's what happens when you live in a lame place like Mexico... you work your ass off trying to survive, while some guy, with the help of all sort of corrupt politicians, rakes in billions of dollars (after giving them their cut, of course)

    He would never been able to make so much money in a country like Switzerland. But in corruption land... piece of cake.

    Corruption is everywhere. It's more visible in some places. A few decades ago, Prime Minister King of Canada set a "No Alcohol" policy, restricting all alcoholic beverages. He was exposed to be taking bribes to look the other way while alcohol was being distributed.

    Who's to say USA isn't corrupt as hell? Just because we don't know of it, doesn't mean it's not happening. Bush is already considered a world-wide moron. What's to stop him from making a little money out of this?
