Romney Gave 1,000 Times as Much to Charity in a Year as Biden Gave in a Decade
When you think it's an individual's job to care for what you think of as charity, you spend your own money, willingly. When you think it's someone else's job, you argue for the State to spend their money, and hang onto your own, having outsourced your morality.

Never ceases to amaze me how few liberal people think that percentage is a valid way to measure giving, until it puts their guy in a favorable light.

this is what some on the right don't get....The hardship of giving away 1 buck when you make 100. Absolute numbers is all that matters for them, not the %

Part of the reason I posted this. The defenses illuminate the basis of the views held. In this case, we see the percentage game being gamed so long as their guy comes out ahead, but then when it comes to taxes, why, we can't use percentage of income paid to judge equality.

Not really. When I made $7000 in one year, it was just as easy to give away the same percentage, as when I made $100k.

You libs crack me up. You argue for state control of our money on a regular basis, yet you STILL demean a man who gave away $4,000,000. Priceless.

I understand the attempt to avoid mathematics in favor of applying subjectives to measure 'hardship' perfectly well.
