Why Do Democrats Give So Little to Charity?

[iceberg]

Republicans will go into the pantry and find a can of expired cream corn and instead of throwing it out take it to the church and try to give it away to the poor as charity and then insist that old can of cream corn was worth $10,000.

Deanard we already know you're an idiot. Quit proving it daily on here.

there is no possible way he could advance his own idiocy.

Good point.
So a religious cult cares more about the needy than rich Democrats.

 

[Oddball]

Because donations to religious cults count as charity, and democrats are less religious , overall.

Organizations like Children's Hospital, Ronald McDonald House, and a zillion other charitable operations aren't religious, fool.

I didn't say they were, crybaby.

Ronald McDonald House is a great charity. That's where my money goes.

I'm not crying at all...You inferred that charitable is given mostly, if not all of it, to religious organizations, and you couldn't be more wrong.

But I guess any opportunity to look down your nose at people of faith is all good, huh?

They prefer to give other people's money to their supporters. Don't ever expect them to reach into their own pockets.

While they preach about paying our fair share and threaten to end tax cuts that helped us little people, they become wealthy and find ways to keep their money. Bernie has never had a job other than being a politician and preaches socialism yet he owns two homes and is doing better than most. Warren bitches about income inequality even though she is a millionaire. Even AOC has millions now and lives better than most.

When they say pay your fair share to help people, they mean they will take more than what they need from us but they are greedy when it comes down to it.

If they wanted to end the housing problem in San Fran or help the poor, they could have donated their own money. If they believed in paying people more money, they would have started their own companies and paid everyone at least $15 an hour. As it is, they have been caught paying people less than average. It's shameful. They are all about promising free shit in exchange for votes.

They don't want to end poverty or any other problem. They need problems so they can promise people more and take more taxes. If they can't convince enough people that they are victims in need of saving, the entire party becomes irrelevant. Of course, their solution for every problem is bigger, more controlling government. If they ever get their way, they'll be like every other socialist dictator and will rule over a very miserable population.

No, not necessarily. It's just that you can go get official cult status with the government, then any donation that comes to you is considered charity. Even when that money actually goes to political action, or a new LED sign for the cult building.

No i didnt. I implied that it accounts for most of the margin of difference. You have the logical tools of a 3 year old.

Well, considering your whole collectivist philosophy is giving people shit, shouldn't Democrats be head and shoulders above both Republicans and Christians? The first time a Democrat teaches anyone to fish, I'll have a heart attack.

At least he didn’t eat the dog like a famous black Muslim did.

 

[sartre play]

10% is the required church tithe, churches do help poor people, just like non church people. they donate to places like Doctors with out borders, ST Jude children hospital' planned parenthood, public TV & raido. check out how much these orgs take in every year. giving is a choice, saying people who vote different than you give less is just plain rude.

 

[Siete]

About seven-in-ten (71%) Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say the government should do more to help the needy, up from a Democratic low of just 54% six years ago. Republicans’ views have shown little change over this period; today, just 24% Republicans favor the government doing more to help the needy, among the lowest levels measured since 1994.
