“giving back”

That phrase annoys me to no end. “Give back”? To whom? We already give back to our churches, parents, and friends.

What they mean is “give” to the losers who won’t make any effort to go through college and become contributing members of society. And that’s taken care of when we “give back” to the government — and it’s called taxes.

Anyhow, that phrase bugs the hell out of me.

Giving back is a wonderful thing that, like every other positive and noble concept, is being co opted and run into the ground by the progressives left wing agenda.

Giving back is typically done by successful people at the end of their careers and revolves around mentoring younger people who aspire to succeed by passing down and transferring the know how and wisdom yo the next generation

The left uses the concept of “ giving back” to support their agenda and recruit talented people to support-obsession their agenda and feel good about themselves by engaging in well intentioned, politically correct but essentially irrelevant and ineffective projects that constitute noble gestures that do little to solve world problems.

Its kind of like the Russian Czar era Potemkin villages applied to charity
