Lmao. Donating to organizations and charity is a waste of money. They are just grifts that take a majority of those donations to enrich their executives and maybe 5-15% actually goes to the cause you support.
Im too poor to give either money but i would rather see it go to someone who brought awareness to the issue and inspired more class consciousness and solidarity than the wall street military industry profiteer owned democrat party ever has.
Really telling that you pretend to care about “awareness” of a problem and at the same time don’t care about saving lives like this one:
Charaty is disingenuous. it attempts to burden the working class by paying some of what little they have to alleviate the societal problems caused by wealth inequity and a system that putts profits for a few over the lives and well beings of those actually doing the work and their loved ones. If we had medicare for all then this poor beautiful child would well be taken care of. And All the money thats otherwise used to pad the pockets of people who spend more on a weekend vacation than you or i could earn in a dozen consecutive lifetimes could be spent on research and medical care thats often denied to bolster profits. Go guilt trip the insurance companies who are responsible for the deaths of 180 human beings on aberage every day due to claim denials. How many of them are children?
I’m just saying if you’re going to throw your money around on a cause, there are better options than Mangione. Insurance companies denied claims yesterday and they’ll deny claims tomorrow, you haven’t done shit about it.
Oh fuck right off. Murdering more health insurance CEOs would save that child, not “donating” to the hospital.
Fuck for profit healthcare. Time to human sacrifice more CEOs into the volcano until things change.
That child literally will not be saved by removing CEOs. Even if you somehow magically make it virtually impossible for a New CEO to take their place with a nonexistent army, the funding needs to be distributed to the hospital and killing CEOs doesn’t make that happen.
Electing Democrats and Independents makes that happen. Removing Republicans from congress makes that happen.
They are just grifts that take a majority of those donations to enrich their executives and maybe 5-15% actually goes to the cause you support.
any references i can look at for this claim?
There is no law mandating that charities have to give any specific amount of the money they collect which is why many charitable organizations can get away with siphoning as much as they they can to executive pay and administrative costs 5-15% may be a lowballed generalization there are likely some people in these roles who do better. Red cross claims 90% goes to the cause but thats highly unusual. There are 42 different charitable non profits in the us where their ceo alone is paid over $1,000,000. The ceo of the sloane kettering cancer research center, Selwyn Vickers earns an annual compensation of just over $5.7 million. Now thats not much for a charity that takes in 7.3 billion but i would be surprised if more than 1.5 billion of that actually went to cancer research My favorite argument against charity is by Slavoj Ziezek in “first as tragedy then as farce” who argues that charity demoralizes and degrades it is immoral to use private property to alleviate the issues caused and exacerbated by private property society instead needs to be reorganized so that poverty is impossible.
Here is some good reading on how the system of charitable non profit organizations is abused bh the wealthy to further enrich themselves
