Well, Libs are running everything right now, & we have tons of homelessness in the areas they control, so why that? Those homeless people must need charity, because big gov't is ignoring them.

The Lib gov't is paying Billions to house, feed, and transport illegals, but allowing our own citizens to go homeless...why?

How about this solution...upto a 2% of total income full direct tax CREDIT for any tax paying American to donate to aproved charities as they please? That, instead of Gov't doling it out inefficiently, & taking their cut...we could donate it directly.

Oh, and we are not the richest country at all...we are the poorest! We are $31,000,000,000,000 in debt...remember? That doesn't even count future promises like social security & pension payments to gov't workers.

Here's the list from poorest (USA) to richest:

One federal agency received a small contribution by trump ( parks ?). No other records are showing where or if he ' donated'.
...
Forbes says otherwise. Looks like his entire salary was donated.

I wonder if our VP's giving $$ to bail out criminals is considered a charitable contribution?

I don't belive that Trump donated to charity or his salary unless we see proof on his tax returns, He lies all the time.


Also : President Donald Trump is paying up after conceding that he used his charitable foundation at times as a personal piggy bank.

What’s worse is that’s their reported income. Doesn’t include the millions in unreported kickbacks Biden got through Hunter and laundered through Ukraine and universities.

Uhmmm...the other choice we had was a guy who was banned from running charities because he defrauded them. I dont think this is the sort of thing you really want to bring up. LOL.
