It should come as no surprise, then, that Gates owns 500,000 shares worth 23 million US dollars (or more) of Monsanto stock.

If he has diversified $10 billions in S&P500 companies, isn't 1/500 of that about... $20millions?

How many share holders film commercials on behalf Monsanto?

"Bill Gates himself even filmed commercials for Monsanto’s GMOs, propping them up as the ‘solution’ to world hunger despite even the United Nations admitting that GMOs cannot fight hunger as effectively as traditional farming."

It doesn't stop there...

What about his investments in Cargill?

"And if that’s not enough, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has even teamed up with Cargill to pump GMO soy into the third world. Cargill, of course, is the the 133 billion dollar corporation that also has been found in direct violation of human rights laws. Cargill was sued by the International Labor Rights Fund for trafficking children from Mali and forcing them to work on cocoa bean plantations for around 12 to 14 hours each day without pay, food, or sleep. The company even continues to purchase cotton from Uzbekistan, where it is well known that child slave labor is used in the cultivation."

They spread GMO while patenting it. If their marketing plan works out, soon there will be only GMO and they'll be the owners of it all. Pretty good scam, considering how much US government is pushing for them.

He probably doesn't even manage his portfolio himself. I would want higher dividends if I were investing in an "evil" stock. Does he invest in GMO Yams?

I knew the guy was evil since that time I installed windows 95.
