You are the exception to the rule and not the rule itself. There are many who are wealthy that do not give a damn about anyone else. They will not give to the poor unless forced to do so, neverless pay their fair share in taxes. These are the people that make other charitable well off people look bad. This is considering that many of them acquired their wealthy BECAUSE of the government hand outs and tax breaks in the first place.
WASHINGTON — Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden and his wife gave an average of $369 a year to charity during the past decade, his tax records show.
Gore gave away only a "miniscule [sic] .0017 percent of his income" the committee said, suggesting that for all the administration's talk of charitable responsibility, the vice president was not practicing what he preached.
They wanted the high dollar education and loans
and now can not pay for it ... thats is tuff.
Considering the colleges increase their tution yearly what do you expect? At this rate only the rich or heavily indebted can go and finish school
I'M not for pay it of with taxpayers money who worked hard for it so
the students could have a free education at our expense when we can't afford to put our own children in collage.
Please tell me what college offers free education? I really want to know so that I can enroll
They wanted the loan now let them pay for it themselves,
by taking that education and get a JOB where they have to work, and pay it back ! ! !
Huh?, what do you think loans force you to do? Rather you get a job in your field or not you still have to work and pay them back, so what are you talking about?
Forget that OBAMA CON GAME ! ! ! ...
Lets just let all of the rich kids go to college and everyone else compete for low earnning jobs. You go ahead and let mitt/paul cut off your kids grants and stop what little ss money that you earned and come back tell us how the "Obama con game" works

Indeed, many walk the walk while others talk the talk.
I could not pull it up, but just out of curiosity what charity did he give to? There is a big difference in giving to a charity that helps the poor and goiving to a charity that helps the rich (super Pacs) can be considered to be a "charity" as well
Sam Walton knew how to start and increase his business
and the family knows how to make their business grow after he died ! ! !
What gets me is there is not another company they have to really compete with.

How abot K-mart and the various mom and pop stores throughout the nation. What Walmart did was take advantage of the cheap labor and products abroad and at the same time provide no benefits and very little pay to the Americans here.
So you mean like the bush family did not get a head start from Prescott bush illegal dealings during WW2 or the Kennedy's did not get ahead from grampa Kennedy's whiskey running? Even if you don't get the the money directly, they still have benefited in a way that someone who had nothing could not.

Those people needed job, and they took them
and they still are working their and no one is forcing them to work.
Walmart employes more people than anyone else in the world.
K-mart and the mom and pop stores don't pay any better either ! ! !
