@KingDavid403 saidYou got me. So who do like in Army Navy game? My money on knights
Awwww. poor baby. lol... We all know who the dumb ass is, except you the dumb ass.
People in both parties give roughly the same. It is income that creates the divide.

@KingDavid403 saidHey Mott. You see KING’s👑 writing about, what, Independents?You simply won the debate outright, and he comes back to you about independents?, for God sakes. Independent what? Let’s say you answer the independent part, he’ll say oh yeah well how does that equate with the Asians? This is classic Liberaleze.
So where do independents rank? Or don't they count too?
Either way, and you know it if you're honest at all; they is no damn way to honestly say which party gives the most percentage of their income; end of story. Nice try tho dumb ass.
Gee, I wonder if the author of your article is a Republican. lol... Only a Republican would say and study something so stupid; someone like little joe boy. He whines and lies like Donald jr; a little angry grade school girl.
I am trying to help him by getting him on a soft subject of football., Let him down easy.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidGood, then you know that they donate roughly the same percentage of their income. Furthermore, most poorer people are democrats; that's the only disparity.
I used your link 😉
maybe you learned something today
your hole is deep enough, quit digging
If One does not have anything left over to give, then they don't have anything left to give. A-DUH! lol...

@AverageJoe1 saidWhat you clearly do not understand is; independents don't care about party; and, they vote across party lines in the finial election, as I do. Now, as you predicted correctly for once; what the hell do Asians have to do with anything we're debating here and now?

“Over three-quarters of US charities’ revenues come from donations by individuals, and we used these individual giving decisions to learn about differences in “apolitical” behaviour by partisans.

Republicans do give more, but where that money ends up is not yet clear. One of the study’s authors, Rebecca Nesbit, associate professor of public administration and policy at the University of Georgia, told the New York Times that Republicans prefer to “provide for the collective good through private institutions. But we don’t know what type of institutions they’re giving to.” It also wasn’t obvious “whether donors were being purely generous or whether they would also benefit from their donation. This relationship is called consumption philanthropy, in which people give to a religious organization or a school from which they will derive a benefit in the form of, say, a better religious education program or a new gymnasium.” Giving to a food bank or a homeless shelter has a very different outcome than does giving to a private school.
While red counties may be more philanthropic, tax rates are higher in blue counties, reflecting stronger support for collective action and for a social safety net of services and organizations. “The county you live in and the political ideology of that county affects the tax burden of the community,” Dr. Nesbit said. “That in turn has an effect on charitable contributions. If you leave tax burden out of the equation, you’re not getting the full story.”

@Mott-The-Hoople saidNice attempt at a shell game, there. Not.

I don't look strictly at what is called "charity" according to the tax code. That is narrowly defined, and we all know you're trying to make the case that somehow Republicans are overall more generous than Democrats, whom you imply are comparatively more stingy and unwilling to open their wallets. Why else would you inject this issue into a thread that is about another topic entirely?
Fact is, Democrats give more in other ways. They're willing to fund services and programs for the needy that are less catch-as-catch-can. Republicans not so much. And the article I linked to also makes the point that Republicans appear to more often donate to causes that they believe they themselves might directly benefit from. Well that's fine, though it's like gifting your wife with a vacuum cleaner on her birthday.

Ha ha ha ha ha. King has started talking about voting, which has nothing to do with this issue. And then soothefast steps in and discusses., and I quote, “where the donated money ends up is not yet clear.”!!!! Haha. He stoops to where it F’n ends up!!! Unbelievable!This is classic.
But these airhead liberals have succeeded in changing the goal post and all the other stuff they call changes of issues.
Just classic. Do they ever win a straight out discussion? I have never seen it.

@moonbus saidYep. Elections. A capitalist says, "How many votes can I buy?" But elections are not to be bought and sold. GOVERNMENT is not a business. Government protects all our rights equally and does NOT offer better "rights protection" to those who pay more money.
Bingo. Certain needful services should not be run like businesses, based on profit. Justice, courts, and the prison system is one example. Public transport is another. Health care is a third. As you rightly pointed out, quite a number of other countries in the world have managed to get the mix about right, providing good quality healthcare free at the point of consumption. wh ...[text shortened]... hey can have and which doctors they can go to. It’s scaremongering. It does not have to be that way.
That's why this trend of, "we need businessmen to run the country" is wrong-headed. CEOs may be the LEAST qualified people to serve in government. (And now we are getting a ton of them...)
Public land. The national parks and highways and fisheries and forests are not a for-profit scheme.

@Mott-The-Hoople saidWarren Buffett (a democrat) is number one in donations to charity in our nation and, out of the top billionaires in our nation.
link?
you said it now back it up
"Warren Buffett has a lifetime giving of $56.7 billion. The Berkshire Hathaway CEO giving focuses on health and poverty alleviation. The 93-year-old has a net worth of $131 billion.
Put that in your pipe and take a toke dumb arse [https://www.fox13seattle.com/news/billionaires-who-give-away-most-money-forbes].
We know you all love Warren Buffett. 🙂
@KingDavid403 saidEasy, KING🤴…. I wrote a few clicks ago that you and Susie Ann when you are against the wall will come back with something totally off the wall, like maybe talk about your dog house in the backyard. I was being funny in my making a point. But darn if you don’t come back with a comment on “independents”!, which have nothing to do with the issue. So then I write back that next you will be talking about Asians in an attempt to muddy the issue. The issue is Democrats and Republicans. No other entities. You are a little slow on the uptake today. As I have said often these last month, you liberals are falling apart.
What you clearly do not understand is; independents don't care about party; and, they vote across party lines in the finial election, as I do. Now, as you predicted correctly for once; what the hell do Asians have to do with anything we're debating here and now?
