May I choose, of my own free understanding, to give money to any individual or company so that they may use it as they please?

Absolutely. This has nothing whatsoever to do with whether the individual or company you chose to give your money to is in compliance with applicable law, however.

As to your point about the limited liability company, the form of organization has absolutely nothing to do with whether an entity is a charity, as I understand it. Charities hold a public trust, and owe a duty to the public to conduct their operations pursuant to applicable laws, regardless of their form of organization.

However, FreeRepublic is not listed as a non-profit, charitable organization (with Guidestar) which must file a form 990 with the IRS (disclosure).
