I quit caring about Americans with that election. They can fend for themselves. We were great charity givers,...no more. Not one red cent.

Same here in our household. We are DONE. Best to keep what little you can for your own family. Call it SURVIVAL.

I have the same reaction. For years I’d been to lazy to set up online bill payments; since the election they’ve all been paid online (with the exception of one local bill) - I’m doing my part to drive the government workforce into the dust. I don’t give to my parish anymore because the Church refused to treat Obama and the Dems as the enemy of the Church that they are; here in NJ they are successfully shutting down Catholic schools & hospitals, and we’re even closing parishes at this point (yet somehow “social justice”, along with the assumption that Dems are more socially just, found its way into campaign rhetoric).

Finally, as much in my own self-interests for lowering debt as to make any statement, I’ve become the stingiest consumer in the world. Still making money, but very little of it trickling down to Obama voters...

"For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: "If a man will not work, he shall not eat."

2 Thessalonians 3:10

I must admit that I have become very estranged from my "fellow Americans" as well. Without going into detail, I still perform charity work for the very poor and for the addicted. I do this because Christ commanded.

But I have long since given up on the hope that millions of "my fellow Americans" would turn a corner and become moral, productive citizens once again.

It's not going to happen.

Yeah I hear that, but you can still give to certain efforts such as Gospel for Asia, the Innocence Project, Persecution.com etc. There are a lot of people out there doing good works.

I will give so I can deduct more from the tax bill..I do NOT want to send those bass-turds one penny more than I must.

I know...I know...I am helping some zero voter get a handout...but I am keeping the real villains from more loot.

Its a small gesture but I hope it helps....

Well, do as I do and give to charities that help homeless animals. They are completely blameless.

Please consider giving to Conservative Red States like Oklahoma or Mississippi in the event of tornadoes wiping them out or some other disaster. While it’s true half the Country is loaded with blue state @ssholes, there are red states out there that will most likely be in a state of disaster or emergency next year. Don’t withhold your charity if they are suffering, because I know I won’t. Blue staters can rot in hell for all I care.
