Who cares if Dick-meister claims a tax deduction?
Because 'the Dick-meister' presumes publicly to criticise people with taxable incomes over $1 million who do not claim tax deductions for donations to charity. One quote of many:
There are 6000 people in this country with an income of more than $1 million," he complains, "and a third claim no tax deductions for charity. Not even $50 to the Salvos.
The 'Dick-meister' implies that because people don't claim these kinds of deductions, they aren't doing anything for charity.
Perhaps some of these people don't need or want the world to know about their charitable works?
Perhaps some of these people find it very difficult to reconcile the true altruism of giving with the economic rationalism of claiming tax deductions?
Perhaps.
Still, I'm hoping Dick gives them merry hell about the destruction of GA, sustainable population etc.
