Do 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.
