Stop giving them money and they will die off. Thousands of tax free charities but yet millions of homeless living on the streets and other millions on Government handouts...not charity handouts. Us tax payers get screwed in all directions. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77345463 . Churches originally said that they needed to be tax exempt because they would take care of the poor. The problem was that they only used a tiny portion of their income to take care of the poor. Most of the money goes to the organization. As usual. |

Same thing with these bullshit walk or run for the cure for whatever disease. How many years has that been going on? 20? 25? Where's the cures? Also, my employer bullying me through United Way campaigns is bull. |

Stop giving them money and they will die off. many charities are scams..some like the Clinton foundation only give 2% of donations to the target group. Its important to donate to groups that give 90%+ to the target groups and the leaders don't make 20 million a year |

Stop giving them money and they will die off. All of those organizations were deemed tax exempt because they were giving to the poor. I agree that their tax exempt status should be taken away if welfare exists. If we ever smarten up and take away welfare will need to make those organizations tax exempt again. Quoting: Chip That is true for churches. They argued that since they took care of the poor they should be tax exempt. The problem is that they take in much more money than they ever give to the poor. Nothing should be tax exempt anymore as the criteria is too subjective. That would end a lot of "charity" fraud. |
