So the government robs the nations coffers by funnelling corporate tax money into charitable organizations and giving the companies a discount on their taxes as incentive for doing it, right?
I'll sit here and wait for the Republican/Conservative OUTRAGE over another program of government waste here.....
<chirp, chirp, chirp>
Reality check for you: the government does not control where charitable donations go. That is up to the donor, much as you wish it were otherwise.
That does seem to be your primary method of operation. Guessing what others think and declaring your guesses true, guessing what the government means and declaring it true.
Seems to be a pattern here.........

Of course, I wouldn't expect you to understand that.
I guess you haven't been listening to obama's lies, whether on the radio, in the THs, or in an Op-Ed - the same old tired cliches, platitudes and rhetoric.
So in your little world, only government can do good?
As Mr.T once said...
No... but legally the only commitment corporations have is to generate profit. Doing good things is an occasional side effect. Large Corporations aren't donating money to feel good about it because (in that case) they would be breaking their contract with stockholders. They are doing it because it raises share price. Conversely they will do things with negative societal benefit for the same reason.
The more I listen to Conservative talk radio, the sicker I get. They repeat the same lines almost like religion. I have come to realize that only a very brainwashed and irrational person could believe in these lies, most of them have no idea what they are talking about and are just conditioned over time to repeat the same irrational, stupid lines as if they were gospel. "The Founding Fathers..." like that ignorant woman at the townhall meeting that talked about the "sleeping giant". Bunch of hooey!
Don't listen.
