Is there a rich, powerful or connected person alive who doesn’t have a foundation?

I don’t know how they work but it makes me think they’re just a way to shuffle money around and avoid taxes.

These foundations provide tax sheltered money pay for rich people to travel and stay first class all over the U.S. and the world while soliciting other rich people to make more donations to shelter their money

Any foundation that uses mooch obama must be a real slusher

I was curious so I checked Charity Navigator. Looks like the Dole’s have three foundations—none of them rated. They really, really, really care.

I’m more than certain that The First Ingrate will find something to bitch about there, as well.

Mainly, they’re the ones who served.
Florida Representative Jeff Miller mentioned in the article looks pretty conservative.
