Well, they donated good citizenship skills to the general populace. That led to an advanced CIVILIZATION. So the city actually used to get something for nothing.
The BS, are hopelessly outnumbered by the no morals publik edjemakashun systum, that's why Philly is the shining example of whut it is today!
If so, do they get free rent?
Does the city where you live provide free rent to organizations that have donated good citizens?
How about the Girl Scouts, do they donate good citizens and do they get free rent?
I've been biting my tongue, but the BSA is also filled with the "no morals" people. I was accused of bigotry by a group of mothers when I told them I won't teach my children about homosexuality. One of those mothers - and her close friends who agree with her - are very active in the local BSA with their sons in it. So, there are people in the BSA who are taking advantage of everything the organization offers, but they don't really share the values.
