Elected officials need to stop releasing their tax returns. Their income, taxes paid and donations are none of our business.

I don’t know how or when or why this started, but politicians feel the need to release tax returns.

Kamala and Doug are very wealthy, and don’t give much to charity considering their income. It’s a bit of grist for the mill for those who want to pick apart their finances.

A whopping .0159?

Wow. How magnanimous of them.

I'll bet they're even more generous with other people's money.

“Bloomberg News reports the couple donated $5,000 each to three of their alma maters, Howard University, the University of Southern California, and California State University, Northridge as part of their charitable giving.”

So the vast majority of their (measly) donations went to universities which are already swimming in cash.

Liberals tend not to make charitable contributions. Reason being, their ideology tells them that government programs should be solving all the ills of society. Thus, they don’t feel the need to contribute to charities.

What they don't write off they pay tax on. I'm ok with that.

I probably wouldn't approve of anyone/thing they donate to anyway.

This is not surprising.

Polls for years have shown that conservatives give more to charity than liberals do.

Liberals are much more charitable with the taxpayers' monies than their own.

Via their party, they donate plenty of YOUR money to their favorite causes, though. So, that must “count”.
