Bill Gates says a 3-day work week where ‘machines can make all the food and stuff’ isn’t a bad idea::“A society where you only have to work three days a week, that’s probably OK,” Bill Gates said.

    Remember when he depended on the workforce and labor of others? Then remember when he stepped away from running a company and stopped depending on labor?

    That’s when he magically turned “for” employee rights and sustainability. Weirdly coincidental, I know.

    I applaud and respect Gates for what he stands for now and what his foundation achieves. But he would be the first one to mandate return to office and be against anything that cuts into his bottom line if he was still running a company.

      His foundation is a stack of lies. His desire is the same as it always was, control of what should be free.
