“The 90's were so much better. The conflicts were smaller, Most of the stuff you attribute to this decade already occured in the 90's,”

“For whom? For white people? What about Apartheid? The Genocide in Rwanda? Conflicts in Sudan and Somalia? Unstable nations in South America? While you enjoyed your backstreet boys, people had to suffer.”

“Give the person a break. She makes a good point in that we get bombarded with all that crap even when we buy a cup of coffee. I guess you never go shopping or turn on the TV.”

“Exactly. I do not even own a television, so all the media I "consume" is by my choice and almost exclusively on the internet. But the way our culture is structured, there is no way to avoid all the b/s, "pop" culture being thrown around like crappy confetti. No matter where you go or what you do you can't avoid stepping in all the crap...”

“Holy crap, You don't think that's true? Most of the big charities have CEOS that have 7 figure salaries. Remember Elizabeth Dole? She took a salary cut when she left Red Cross to run for Senate.
Those ads for charities are very expensive and are a huge chunk of their budget. Those people who call you for donations? They're a paid contracting company that gets their share of the loot. Fees, rent, and overhead takes even more money. I'm surprised that there is even ten percent left.
And of course with the money given to charity it's tax deductible. That's less money going to the budget and our deficits get higher and the American people lose.
Stick to the local charities and those that sell donated goods. Playing golf for less money is not giving to charity.”
