You don't think their numbers or conclusion accurate or are you simply knee-jerking into denial?

I think there has never been a charitable hospital built by a poor person. I also think it is none of my damn business what anyone does with their money, until they start preaching to me about what I should do with mine.

Do the math. Then you will agree with me.

Nope, still 3.2%>>>1.3%

If building a hospital is a pocket change for one person, but donating 100$ to cancer society is lot of money for other person, then who donates more?

It is interesting to see warped thinking of conservatives, where wealth is treated as a virtue all on its own. You all read this article as "Why the GOOD PEOPLE Don't Give to Charity". Pathetic.

As I figured you still don't get it.

Thank you for reading my mind and telling me what I think. What would I ever do without you?

The person who built the hospital, obviously.

Your insistence that amount of pain inflicted on a person is the real measure of their worth is something most rational people find objectionable tbh.

The article was actually pretty interesting, and there is plenty worth thinking on. Its a pity to turn it into a facile exercise of shedding and assigning "guilt".

Well, then how can you turn around and oppose to ultra-progressive taxation? I think every one of you floated some form of a flat tax at one or another point. After all, if only absolute values matter, why bother taxing bottom 50%?
