“Money, pardon the expression, is like manure. It's not worth a thing unless it's spread around, encouraging young things to grow.”

Beyond impressive. Way to go George! And to think that some millionaires and billionaires balk about paying even a few percentage point more in taxes.

"And to think that some millionaires and billionaires balk about paying even a few percentage point more in taxes."

Lucas is donating the money to an educational foundation. He's not donating it to government.

The governing of one's country is not a worthy cause to donate to, anyway.
