So $25 million for COVID-19 and $1.4 billion for arenas, sounds about right, where his priorities are!
You are correct, I'll contact Steve right away and tell him to take back his donation because ciseliga doesn't appreciate it. Both Steve and I want to know exactly how much you have donated and exactly what you have done for the cause???
As far as to where his priorities lie, it is his money that he earned, he is free to spend it anyway his like. YOu should give up all of your toys and give everything to the cause as you are suggesting Steve should do,,

Exactly someone like Bloomberg could buy half a dozen luxury cruise ships with capacity for a about 4000 a piece have all the rooms outfitted for dealing specifically with this illness, have them all lined up at the pier in New York and it would be an expenditure for him equal to one of us paying for a tank of gas for our car .

Yeah buddy, whatever you say, maybe Steve can donate $1 Billion!

Actually, I'm just a peon but helping out by making crucial Virus Transport Media (VTM) for my local VA so they can continue testing patients for the virus, which is probably more than you are doing?

Your name is spot-on by the way.

I didn’t see you donating $25 million or even $2500.

Why don’t you donate millions first before you criticizing others?
