I think we give too much personally. I think we could do more for our own people. But thats just me. I think Jolie, Bono and Carter and anyone else who is saying not enough is given should just give more of their own money. I realize Bono and Jolie do give quite a bit to the charities they sponsor which is great. But not all of us can do so.

Notice how these rich philanthropists still manage to live pretty high on the hog even when you take in their charitable contributions?

Most americans, when they give to charity, can feel the hurt of that in their lives. They actually go without and sacrifice when they give to charities.

These rich people can give and give and give and they STILL GET TO TRAVEL AND LOUNGE AROUND POOLS AND SHOP ON RODEO DRIVE AND DRIVE THE BEST CARS AVAILABLE AND LAVISH THEMSELVES WITH MASSAGES AND SPA VISITS.
