Is it just me or is soliciting donations getting way the hell out of
hand?
Last time I was at Walmart, the checker asked for a donation to some
international childrens thing and when I turned her down, she asked to
round
up my bill. For the same cause. Got hit up twice in the friggin parking
lot,
once was some cheerleader squad and the other a guy selling crappy
overpriced t-shirts and claiming the proceeds go to charity.
Next day, kids show up with the magazine subscription/ finance our trip
to
wherever and later make a donation and get a "gift" of stale peanut
brittle.
I already have a few charities that suck the life from my wallet:
electric company
water company
insurance company
mortgage company
Not to mention a teenage daughter and a wife that seem to get 90% off
the
top.

You forgot the greediest buggers of them all, government.


wrong.

wall street. wall street uses the govt as a private collection agency
to get the taxpayer to bail out the rich

socialism for the rich


For some like GM, Chrysler, Citi, BAC etc. I agree. These are the corrupt
ones that need bankruptcy to clean out the paracitical garbage.

I am a investor and capitalist, and I am dead against the corruption of
taxing people and corporations for dysfunctional welfare corporations. The
cost to all is too high in the end.


You are neither. You're a leech. You don't work. You're on the dole. You
will always be on the dole.
