Someone in the news did research this. I guess he is a donor for certain charities. Good for him. It is HIS choice of charity and the amount HE wants to contribute.

HERE’S the problem:

Charity donations are just THAT...voluntary gifts to a charity of YOUR CHOICE!!! We control how much we give. We know where it goes and how it is used. ALL Americans do THIS routinely and always HAVE.

A L W A Y S!!

We resent this spoiled, overpaid, ignorant Hollywood puppy calling us greedy and uncaring.

Liberals demand money (MORE MONEY ALL THE TIME) in addition to the voluntary personal and private donations made by Americans in their usual charity donations. Liberals call these ever increasing ‘taxes’ equitable, compassionate and necessary measures to help the less fortunate. The Liberals take this from us and ‘administer’ the benefits to groups and individuals OF THEIR CHOICE AT THEIR OWN DISCRETION.

It’s the double whammy for American workers.

• We are coerced, under pain of litigation, by the Fed. to pay for the groups THEY choose, at a level THEY determine is needed-with no proper or demonstrated accountability for money spent
• We are constantly demonized and insulted if we expect of ask for accountability or challenge the gov. demand for ever more money

At what point do American workers get to keep what they earn?

Donating to a charity is not going to do a damn thing about the national debt unless the “charity” in question is the US government. You don’t get tax deductions for donating money to the US government. That would defeat the purpose of the donation.
