He wants to feed people GMOs with harmful pesticides

Know we know where all the GMOs are coming from unless otherwise

he needs the land so that his money can grow and grow and grow and grow and grow, you get the picture..... forever harvesting the Benjamins

Andalso the most corrupt man on planet earth

Hopefully more billionaires do the same and establish food programs to feed people in poverty with fresh food. Not for profit type of thing. And forest land to start conservation efforts. Individual efforts might save countless animals from extinction.

...and he didn’t steal the land—he bought it. (Kenyans will know why I’m saying this).
