What does Bill Gates want for the NoDaker's? Well let me try. Board member Berkshire Hathaway,does BNSF ring a bell,Oil Transport,Grain Transport. Issues with various Right of Way for BNSF. Despite some thinking this Guy is Liberal,for get about it. This Guy is Mr Greed and funnels all his money through a so called Foundation which is nothing more than a money Laundry.
