Is not Bill Gates anymore. It is, get this.... a Mexican.
MEXICO CITY (AFP) - Mexican telecom tycoon Carlos Slim Helu has overtaken Microsoft founder Bill Gates as the richest person on the planet, the Mexican financial website Sentido Comun reported.Ironic, isn't it? But, of course, since there can never be any form of "wealth redistribution" what-so-ever, Mexico not only has the richest man in the world, but also..
Sentido Comun said the Mexican billionaire's wealth had rocketed past Gates following the red-hot performance of his telecommunications firm, America Movil.
"Thanks to a 26.5-percent rise in the shares of America Movil during the second quarter, Slim, who controls a 33-percent interest in Latin America's largest mobile phone company, is substantially richer than Gates," Sentido Comun said.
"The difference between their two fortunes is around nine billion dollars in favor of Slim," the financial website claimed.
Fifty-three percent of Mexico's population of 104 million live in poverty, which is defined as living on less than two dollars a day, World Bank data show.

I guess that leaves out George Soros, the guy who bought the democratic party. aw.
Still, he's slinging a lot of money into those leftist causes you're drooling over!
He poured millions to get McCain Feingold, now he's got America Coming Together; America Votes; Center for American Progress; Joint Victory Campaign 2004; The Media Fund; MoveOn.org; and the Thunder Road Group. to push his agenda!
Amnnesty for illegals, the witch hunt against Libby, Tom Delay and others-all driven by these jerknuts that you probably have no idea even exist.
It's nice to know that none of the bullshit here is original, though. It's stuff we've seen many times before. *yawn*
Funny how the oppresion of blacks was also justified by biblical scripture. Of course, however, you don't point that out. Neither do you point out that, when slavery was going on, the South was a republican stronghold. Way2be dumbass.
