I’m guessing they made enough money from google to retire. I’d imagine any company that may hire him would look at this website and probably pass on them.
Ha, right? Easy to talk about morality and such after they’ve already cashed out.

I don't know what went down but I think he should have asked the people on location what they need. Maybe he did... If he didn't it's just pretty arrogant to spend a little time on a problem you know nothing about and then publicly exclaiming you know a solution.
A good idea now would be to send money to the family of the driver who died. That would be helpful.
It's odd that you admit you don't know what went down but are still passing judgement.
Even if he did, he didn't interfere or impede rescue efforts and gave them a tool they could possible use in the future. It's cool and a nice thing to do, and doesn't really seem like a big deal.

Did they live longer because of their diet or because of their reliable access to food?

When did people lose sight of the fact that the primary purpose of film on the silver screen is entertainment?
Where do authors like OP get the idea that I want to go to the movies to have politics shoved down my throat? And that there is some kind of obligation for those in charge to forgo their primary motivations of artistic expression and/or profit in the interest of some totally arbitrary target of "representation" of every combination of color, gender, and socioeconomic status?
Not to mention, this kind of thinly veiled political grandstanding in the context of film review is almost always cherry picking. There have been plenty of films examining poverty from numerous perspectives. The fact that they are not en vogue now does not speak of some kind of crisis-just like people clamoured over Black Panther as the first positive representation of blacks on screen, while conveniently ignoring decades of black cinema.
Outrage is the kind of thing, in my opinion, that is trivial to find, if you look hard enough.
"Where do authors like OP get the idea that I want to go to the movies to have politics shoved down my throat?"
A lot of people seem to want this, given the fact that dozens of political movies are released every year

Cool analysis. Doesn't every player use the same die for a game like Catan?
