“United Way is the biggest scam in charity outside the Clinton Foundation. “
Way back as a lowly enlisted man we were ‘coerced’ to give to United Way.
Back at an old job I had we were strongly "encouraged" to donate to a firm wide United Way drive. After I found out that United Way had a CEO making over $750 K a year I refused to donate to them anymore. Coincidentally, that's when I switched to donating to Salvation Army. I bet the Christian nature of the SA is a big factor in this cutback. UW are hard core lefties.
I told them “hell no” and swore I’d go direct to the IG if they pressured me any further or punished me for not giving. :)
