JKan420 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I can see your point OP but it was a good deed nonetheless. What should upset you, along these lines, are charities with 80% overhead costs, or "non-profit" organizations like the NFL (National Football League) who are tax-exempt, or ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council) masquerading as a non-profit when in reality their only objective is to subvert democracy and privatize everything. These are the real goons with ulterior motives, $$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil weasel Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) False Charity has been around since 1917 in the United States of America. If the other less well to do tax payers have to bear the brunt of paying a percentage of their earnings, but the 'rich' can give away a small part of theirs and thus reduce the amount of taxes they pay, who is actually donating to 'Charity'? "Giving" a 1,000$US to a single poor person does what? Buy him a lasting home or even a lease to an apartment? A thousand dollars is what in the real world? A single weeks pay for a worker, or a months income for the Retired average former worker? And then what...? A thousand Lottery Tickets? How many pints of Vodka or Gin?
