Unless your church is doing the work that Salvation Army is doing you are missing an opportunity. Same is true of Samaritans Purse

You hear that?

It’s the sound of crickets chirping, from the mega-rich Clintons.

I’ve always had a question in the back of my head about donations to charities or charitable organizations....

When somebody donates, the “donator” gets to claim a deduction in his/her/its income tax filing. Which means that, part of the donation is being contributed from the tax collections or government funds. Receiving a deduction means that one is not really contributing the whole amount “donated” if one gets back some of that money via the deduction.

So, why not make “donations” not deductible and have the donators pay the whole amount?
