The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has offered to fork over $5 million to the Leo Burnett advertising agency to help Libraries. The Bill Gates donated money would help libraries raise public awareness about their financial needs and help them raise money. Basically the check will be given to Chicago’s Leo Burnett advertising agency since they were appointed to be doing the campaign..
…. uhh…. Don’t believe us? read it for yourself…
Want to know our problem with it? The chances are it won’t even raise $5 million for the Libraries. He should have donated the money directly to individual libraries or given it to a lobbiest for them to grab some bailout funds that they were going to spend anyway..
Clearly there is money bailout money spent, such as $75 million to repave three miles of rough pavement on Interstate 710 in Los Angeles…. yep.. thats $25 million per mile…
