Just fix one thing: hypocrisy
Just do what you say, for example, _GIVE_ your college seat to others who has a different skin color or whatever though their GPA is only 40% of yours, instead of just saying you're for AA but you took no actual meaningful action. Just _Moving_ to the neighborhood that you want to help directly and do not buy house in a conservative district then saying you're welcoming lots of section8 house nearby, that's just not good enough. Also let your employer know that you can _GIVE_ your chance to those who have a difference skin color but not as experienced as you. And _DONATE_ 20% of your after-tax income to help those in-need instead of asking the federal to print more money for food-stamps. Last but not least, just _PAY_ more premium out of your pocket so others can get a basically free-ride for medical care, etc,etc.
Just _DO_ it instead of say it, the one who benefited because your generous _actual_action_ will speak to others, so you can safely save the ideology part and let them speak for you, just DO what you want to say, instead of keeping saying it and expect others to do it for you and you feel good about saying those words.
If Democrats DO what they say, all issues will be fixed quickly.
- cryptarch 10y agoDo you trust that donations to charity organizations do significant good? Because I'd just as likely give money to a charity as to a beggar, which is to say: no chance at all. What did they do to deserve my money, and why should I trust they'll spend it better? As an aside, your text formatting very much distracted me from your content and left a patronising, annoying impression on me.
- sunsu 10y agoThere are many charities with great, documented, track records. There is only one US government and it's track record of efficiently and effectively allocating resources is horrible.
- parenthephobia 10y agoI can't help thinking that the government might be better able to e.g. distribute medicaid if half (or more) of the government wasn't constantly doing everything in its power to prevent, disrupt or impede it. That's not usually a problem that charities have.
