No he doesn't. That's you putting those words in ol' Bono's mouth. I think he's been quite consistent with his do-good attitude from the start which is perhaps an achievement when you think of everything he and the band has been through from the start. I rate Bono's influence on the world as much more positive than many, many other famous people out there and that's gotta be worth something.

In my opinion the only bad thing with U2 is perhaps their music if you don't like it and the fact that they've been too popular for their own good. What comes up must come down and nowadays they've become rather uncool. That doesn't matter to me, but it's a trend that's easy to spot with others.
