Even if Microsoft was evil, Gates is still an inspiration to me.

Because Microsoft was evil, Gates is an inspiration to me.

I think it means that he is an inspiration for money drove minds.

Because my aunt stopped beating his child after 15 years and started to work in a dog shelter, she is an inspiration to me ?

Err... no.

>Because my aunt stopped beating his child

It's beyond ridiculous to compare anything that Gates did to physical violence. He had a few vicious, harmful business tactics. His overall benefit to society, especially if you include his philanthropic work, is likely beyond what most people here will ever achieve.

People died because Gate financed the green revolution in Africa.

System were corrupt because of him.

Next to that, beating one child is less harm, not matter how awful it is.

I dunno if it's rediculous... anyone who struggles to improve theirself should be applauded.

Some of us are innately more immoral/moral.
