>The only exception is Bill Gates who is trying to make this world a better place.

I hardly call being a eugenicist "making the world a better place". The Nazis tried it too. They also thought they were "trying to make the world a better place". Bill Gates is a notorius eugenicist.

In other words, you couldn't find a trustworthy source and therefore want to have us do the work for you?

Are you kidding me? Did you see how many articles there are in that search result? Over 30 at the very least. What I was implying by giving the link was, there is overwhelming evidence, not that I'm lazy, but that people who ask "for a source" are often too damn lazy to even type into a search engine. I might as well have sent a LMGTFY link. I would expect a little more intellectual effort out of ycombinator readers, but I suppose that's how it goes these days. Everyone wants a hand out.

Isn't this site basically run by programmers? Ya'll can't type into a search engine though? I mean really?

Of course there are articles. Of course I could read them. But I could not judge them since I'm not knowledgeable in the subject. For example, I don't know the affiliations of the sources involved, so I cannot judge if they just want to throw some shit at Gates over a decades-long personal feud or something.
