Sorry pal, but I was not wrong. There were strong complaints filed against this organization about a decade ago by the very people they purported to help, those with MD and those who care for them. The complaints centered around the revenue to expenses ratio, which was ridiculous at the time, and in the neighborhood of what I quoted you in a prior post. It was a complete joke and people were shocked. The L.A. Times was even compelled to cover the story but dutifully steered the discussion away from the finances and towards a ‘disagreement over how those with MD were being portrayed to the public’, by Jerry Lewis and his organization. That was a minor issue, the finances were the primary problem. With the scrutiny, MDA closed ranks and was forced to clean up its act financially, but they still continued to fight against anyone asking for a clear accounting of what was going on. The joke at the local bar in our area was that people were buying those paper MDA hearts and cutting them in half before putting them up on the wall, to indicate how much of their $1 or $5 was going to Jerry and how much to MDA. People were openly mocking this organization.
So you can continue glorifying this farce and continue sending money to employ people with six figures jobs, I don’t really care. But I won’t, and when people continue to mindlessly support Jerry Lewis just because the media tells them to, I will continue to hammer.
You started out with a false accusation and have gone downhill since.
Take your hard on for MDA and stick it somewhere else.
