since you don't trust the gov't, what are you doing to help the poor survive? moondog Send a noteboard - 04/04/2013 12:58:49 AM

since you are so wealthy you had to pay the AMT, how much of your money did you donate to charities which deal with helping the poor? how are you, personally, making their lives better since you don't trust the government to handle it? stop bitching and do something about it for a change.
