> It is THEIR fault that the choice is FaceBook or nothing because they want that to be the choice.

It's Facebook's fault that many Indians can't afford the Internet? Okay...it's also Facebook's fault that there is poverty in the world. You know, poverty that spontaneously started to exist in 2004, when Facebook was founded.

Unfortunately, it sounds like this job isn't a fit for you. I was in the same position 2 years ago when I joined a company, and four months in, I dreaded going to work everyday. The CTO liked to mock competitors with young CEOs, the product manager and eng manager I worked with were racist against Latinos, and the senior eng team had a dogmatic view on writing software. Needless to say, I lined up another job and left. It was the best decision I ever made. Now I'm surrounded by open-minded, supportive, and creative individuals.

If you have the ability and luck to make a billion dollars, you probably have a bit more skill than the average Joe to determine where that money should go...

Did you actually read the results of the $100 million going to Newark instead of blindly believing the media? Probably not... #uninformed.
