I'm with you on this, but there is no skin to put. I opened my own business last January and I damn sure am not giving my hard earned money to a politician before I pay the phone bills and electric bills that keep the business alive - or perhaps I should be a Democrat and just go on welfare and say f#%k it. So, let's see, my wife is unemployed and we don't collect a dime for that fact - never even bothered to apply. So, what I make helping people by being the only honest computer repair guy on the planet - the one who won't rip anyone off and guarantees all my work, the one who find out whats wrong with a computer for free - now you want me to start giving money away before I even pay my bills?

I'm afraid you've lost your marbles. Bills first, then possible donations if anyone is actually worthy of some assistance. I did dig up a little for the State Police Officers fund - it was the best I could do for the past year.
