The next time you* want to bitch about greed and corporate executive pay, remember that these people are sitting on TRILLIONS of dollars that don't actually go to charity, but to political activities, and almost always Progressive political pursuits.



* And you know who you are.

Maybe some new rules to make the system more fair for real charities to tap into that money, or will greedy Progressives just refuse to pony up?

How dare you charge any Progressive of being greedy! Everyone knows only conservatives are guilty of greed.

True enough.



I guess I should stand by for some serious trolling now...



A_J, who are you going to believe? Lying American Thinker or The Clintons?

Yes but there's simply leveraging their charitable little hearts. If they can elect Democrats to print more money and give it away that's far greater for the greater good than actually giving their own money away.

Only the money that government gives away has a multiplier effect and only that money is effective in fighting the war on poverty.

Goverment taking money out of the economy, stirring it around, and then re-distributing it is useful economic activity.

A CEO turning a profit for the company and its shareholders earning a huge bonus which he then spends somewhere is not.

He's raping the workers...



... not giving them the welfare they deserve.
