What about the argument of "my daughter's troop is OK"?

Although I think that anyone's opinion is fine when it comes to his/her own child, I would rather give the now 10.00 each that it takes for me (to be a leader) and my daughter to participate and give it to a worthwhile organization. There are many good groups out there that are not so liberal nor money grubbing. Let's just talk about the scholarships to the GS. If a child comes to my troop, GS will pay for her 10.00 registration. Most times the leaders will end up with a gift certificate from someplace that will cover her sash. Who covers the dues? The cost of the crafts? That same leader who has paid 10.00 to volunteer.
I wouldn't mind this if the GS had the values I do, but to supplement them for their liberal agenda? NO WAY.
