Not *positive* about that but I believe there was the implication that donations to the MCDC, at least for the fence, are or would be tax deductible. I could be wrong.

Looking at open secrets for the 2006 cycle RightMarch PAC gave less than 3000 dollars to to actual people running for office. In many cases they just gave a 100 bucks to a guy. That barely enough to by the donuts for the letter stuffing crew , I mean why bother.
Anyway. So They basically spent 48,ooo doollars for this period. 3000 Dollars wet to people running for office. The vast majority of the 45,000 dollars went to business that are owned by the smae people basically or to American caging.(Full Ownership much like Constatine Financial I am not sure of yet)
I need one of these PAC things. I could run this thing off my PC and retire in a few years. What is bad is this is just one of many countless organization/pacs/charitable groups in this empire that is foing this. One can see why the Fence was a goldmine.
If the materials were donated, they would be a deduction.
