You can't seriously believe that! Name a few comparisons you've got inside your head that makes you say this.
I have nothing but positive things to say about the Gates Foundation and education. My neighbor's kids finished at a Gates funded school called Early College. They entered were able to complete their college education in 3 years as a result of having a concurrent high school and college curriculum. Excellent deal for my neighbors because they couldn't afford to send both of their kids to a 4-year university.
Your reading comprehension needs some work. They are only saying that their wealth gives them more opportunities and access to powerful people while an ordinary person doesn’t have those opportunities.
2007? Really? Ok, let's go there. From your link...

"Gates Foundation Awards KnowledgeWorks $7.4 Million for Ohio High School Transformation Initiative
June 28, 2007
The KnowledgeWorks Foundation has announced a $7.4 million grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to support the Ohio High School Transformation Initiative, which aims to provide a high-quality high school education for students in some of Ohio's most underserved communities."

So what's the issue?
Aside from the program being an abject failure, nothing.
The foundation gives grants and the districts use the money to hire "consultants" and "policy experts" to clean up the schools.
Only problem is that every district on that list was and still is a nightmare. I picked Ohio because I'm a native and have several friends teaching in those districts.
The Gates made their wealth in American and in white culture, but they donate most of their money to people who are expressly not white or not American.

They do, they give to people other poor countries, they are globalist. People in the U.S. mistakenly believe that when rich liberals talk about giving to the poor they think they are referring to American poor. But people don't understand is that even our poor are better off than people in other countries. So when liberals talk about giving to the poor, they don't mean you, they are referring to people in other countries.
